I know a lot of you guys reload for the magnificent Luger. Can you give me a hint how to gauge a caliper so that I'll be certain for any measure that I make. My caliper is swiss made, 5" brand new from 30 yars ago. It has a vernier in mm and 10 th of a mm also the vernier has provision for the measure inches and tenthof inches coupled with a dial covering a hundred and thoudand of an inch. I tried to find a simple gauge block but instead they could only sale me a complete set at 1900.00$. Too much for me. Any idear ? Thanks!
