You’re Measuring Lands Wrong (Here’s How to Fix It)

In this episode of the Forster Podcast, Scott and Josh dive deep into one of the most important — and sometimes overlooked — aspects of precision reloading: finding the lands in your rifle.

We break down multiple methods, including the Hornady OAL gauge, custom case modifications, and Josh’s personal “feel” technique. You’ll learn why finding the lands matters, how different bullets impact measurements, and why consistency is more important than perfection.

We also touch on:

• Common pitfalls when measuring lands
• Why magazine length and chamber pressure matter
• Tips for new reloaders to avoid mistakes
