The cleaning rod/dowel method was the least accurate of the three methods I tried. My gauge is made from a case that was fire formed in my rifle. I think my gauge measurement was long by a few thousands because I wasn't cramming the gauge into the chamber as hard as the bolt did with the dummy round. But the headspace in both instances should be pretty close to zero.

The rifle shot pretty well with my first load ladder which ended up having a jump of about 0.060" because my cleaning rod measurement was so far off. I don't know if the shorter jump will matter or not. I just like to play.
