    Noe or brownells chamber length gauge

    Is one better than the other? Brownells is soft steel I looked at noe but couldn't find what material they are made of. Anyone have a preference? Thanks Bob

    I've used the Sinclair guages made from 12L14 soft steel for years. Brownells probably sells the same ones since they own Sinclair. If I didn't already have the Sinclair guages I'd get the NOE simply because they're less expensive and, unlike Brownells/Sinclair, will ship hassle free within 24hrs or less.

    I've got the NOE aluminum, 6mm, .30, .32/8mm, .35 maybe others. They work just fine.
