L.E. Wilson
The L.E. Wilson 26 Nosler/28 Nosler case gage is a precision measuring tool built to help you catch the most common and costly reloading mistake: oversized brass. Whether you're working up handloads for a new magnum rifle or maintaining a batch of fired brass, this one-piece gage lets you quickly verify headspace and overall case length without guesswork. It pairs with any caliper to give you repeatable, reliable measurements that protect both your cases and your rifle's chamber.
For belted magnum brass like 26 Nosler and 28 Nosler, headspace control is critical. A belted case relies on the belt for primary support, but aggressive resizing at the shoulder can shorten case life dramatically. This gage helps you resize conservatively and only when necessary, saving money and brass in the long run. It's the foundation of a disciplined handloading routine.
L.E. Wilson gages are trusted by precision reloaders and benchrest shooters who understand that the smallest measurement errors compound across a batch. The knurled middle grip makes it easy to handle, and the one-piece design resists wear. Keep one at your loading bench and consult it every time you full-length resize—it takes seconds and can save your brass and your groups.

A case gage measures headspace and overall length to help you set up your full-length resizing dies correctly and catch oversized brass before it gets loaded into your rifle. Oversizing is one of the most common reloading errors and can lead to premature case failure and safety issues.
Belted magnum cartridges like 26 Nosler and 28 Nosler use the belt as the primary headspace reference. Aggressive shoulder resizing can damage the belt and drastically shorten case life. This gage lets you monitor your resize pressure and keep it minimal, preserving your brass.
Yes. The gage gives you physical reference points—overall length and datum-to-head—that you measure with a standard caliper to get your numbers. This is faster and more accurate than trying to feel headspace by hand.
The package includes the gage itself and printed instructions.
