Curse you. A pox on your house.

Another measuring tool I don't have, don't seem to need ... but now will not rest until I've bought one.

How have I lived 76 years without knowing these existed?

Well, you can polish the chamber in the gun that wont go into battery and it can eliminate your stoppages. You may also not getting full length sizing of the brass back to the base. And then you may be hitting the rifling with the bullet in one barrel but not the other. In that case you may have to bump your overall length a bit shorter to work in both.
