Headspace gauge for 6.5x47L

[RLP]

I am building a new 6.5x47L with a no turn neck and was wandering which hornady headspace gauge to use. My sheet doesn't list it. I assume it would be the same as a 260 Rem and .308 which would be a .400. can anyone tell me if this is correct?

Being a new member I really appreciate all the knowledge that this forum has to give and hardly a day goes by that I don't learn something new. Thanks and good shooting

Midway has the correct Go/ and No Go guage for the 6.5x47L. Pacific tool and Guage has them as well. here is a link...

The .375 body is the one you want if you're using the Hornady comparator gauge.

hdbiker1 is correct on the size of the hornady guage to use. You can verify it by referring to the 6.5x47 drawing at the top of this section and converting to inches.
