1. always great products

   Posted by William Gilbert on Jul 10th 2018

   Between myself and a few friends we have used thousands of these checks. I can count on one hand, without using thumbs how many bad ones I've had.
   Great crimp

   Good has checks at a reasonable price. I was extremely impressed with the customer support that I received from sages. They sent me a sample of their other .30 Cal checks and I will buy those next time as they are as good or better than the gator checks at a lower price. Thanks Sage's!

   Good checks!! work very well ,at afair price. Why would anyone pay 10 - 15 bucks more for a high dollar "name" brand is beyond me

5. Another great gas check from Sage's

   I use these for .30 WCF on a 170g LFN in a Marlin 336 (microgroove) and Winchester 1894. They work well with Alox lube and a Lee bullet sizer.

8. Perfect and Cheap

   Posted by Norman on May 24th 2017

   I'm completely satisfied with the Gator Gas Checks. I've been using this Checks for Lee 200 grs .309 sized rilfle bullets, which are driven by my charge up to 1700 fps giving best results with my 7,5 x 55 Swiss Ordonance rifle. No fouling inside the barrel and perfect accuracy.
   They fit accurate and tight and I had no problems to snap on them without using the press. They are also much cheaper than the stuff of the competitors. I will order this Checks again.

9. First time buyer

   Posted by M on May 22nd 2017

   I'm giving it 4 stars since I haven't had my hands on any competitors like Hornady. I ordered they were in stock and shipped rather quickly. I think all in all it took 4-5 days from purchase to on the bench. I've already worked up a load on the 30-06. These gas checks are not the "weak link" for my groupings. At 50yds I can get very close to the same hole with them. 4 in a Dime size. Maybe more but that's all I had of that load. At 2.4 cents a gc, I'm coming back when I burn thru these!
   
   The fit was fine after sizing but some did come off when I had to dissemble some rounds kinetically. New gcs went back on without an issue.

10. Tight on 7.62 (.312) Lee cast bullets

    Posted by Artus Roodenweiler on Apr 20th 2017

    I think the headline says it all. These do fit rather tight on 7.62 (.312) 160gr bullets cast from Lee dies. I'm not going to knock a start off for that though. It isn't Gator's fault Lee dies drop a bullet with a slightly larger shank than standard when casting with Linotype.
    
    These gas checks are consistent in size and have been properly work hardened so they grab onto the shank like ... well ... like a gator. To properly seat these on Lee cast 160gr bullets in 7.62 (.312) diameter, I set up my 9mm seating die, my Lee .311 sizing punch and simply pressed the checks onto the base. Then I swapped dies and sized the bullets per Lee's instructions. The gas checks seated squarely and locked on so tight i couldn't pry them off with a screwdriver.
    
    In the future, I'll use the large neck flaring die to open the gas check up so I don't have to press as hard when using the 9mm seating die to seat the check.
    
    I will definitely buy these again.
