    HELP!! Philadelphia area guy needs a hand.


    I already had my build thread, but now I am in a pickle. I finally have the tools coming to complete my 260 Remington build this week. But I don't have a "Go Gauge". And, it seems like they are out of stock everywhere, unless I want to spend $50(no thank you!) So can anyone help out? I'm in the greater Philadelphia area, so if there is anyone local I can drive to. If not, would anyone be able to mail me one in loan? Thanks in advance guys.

    I just found a set of Forster gages on Ebay. I bought both go and no-go as I couldn't find them on the usual sites, all sold out as you mention. Even NSS was unable to offer one with my new 223 barrel, though he may have them in by now. Give him a call.

    Here's one at Midway ;http://ads.midwayusa.com/product/159...88&sdc_id=eBay

    Is that 308 Winchester, Balljoint? As said, that is the same headspace gauge As 260. So is 243 Winchester, 7mm-08, etc.

    Oxford circle I'm not familiar with. Oxford Valley, I'm south of. I'm near South East Philly....Upper Darby to be exact. But I think I'm gonna have one. Another member, mattri, offered to send me one to use. So I'm hoping. Thanks guys.
