I was concerned that the No-Go could be compromised, but two known rifles I have still do not close on the No-Go gauge. I’m definitely going to have to try a Field gauge. I sure hope dude didn’t send the reamer too far.

The easiest way is to get a properly sized casing and place scotch tape over head until it the bolt begins to bind. Remove tape in one piece and measure thickness.
Even easier using this method with a go or nogo gauge. Does take some math skills. If I still have 06 gauges I might sell them as I've sold my lathe and all my reamers. Had 65 different ones.
