What are those little metal things "I think made by wilson" that you slip your reloaded round into to tell if it's sized/seated properly

You mean like these from Lyman and RCBS?

Case guage
Cranial Flatulence, eh?
Chambers?
A recent .223 barrel I installed would not take any ammo even if it fit the case gauge because the lead was not cut properly.
Savage Axis take off barrel.
You would have to almost seat all the bearing surface of the bullet into the case to make it chamber.
I always checked my loads with the firearm the ammo would be fired in.
Then refer to my dial calipers or a micrometer to make sure everything stays copacetic.

Plunk test.
Remove barrel, hold vertically, drop round into barrel. If it goes “plunk” it’s right for the chamber.

Ok, I figured it out, Dongs had Hornady, Lyman and RCBS for me to look at. They all looked like the same, all cost the same. Probably come from the same supplier and lazered with their logos.
Try Jerry's too.
EGW makes some of them to minimum dia as opposed to the standard max dia
