Some time ago, one of the earlier times when components were scarce, I started to make some .22-250 brass from .308W. At some point, I am going to have to measure the case necks and turn them. I have a Forster Co-Ax Case and Cartridge Inspector, which is said to be able to measure neck wall thickness, but it uses a dial indicator. I also have a Neco unit, which may also do the same. I did not check if it does, but it also uses a dial indicator. I have seen units such as this "Brownells" (formerly Sinclair International) Case Neck Wall Thickness Micrometers.

Which is the best way to measure? I am thinking the direct reading micrometer style tools vs. any of the units I have, or any other utilizing an indicator, but I am not really sure. The simplest and cheapest would be using what I have, but I also want to do it the best way.
