Not sure if this will help you at all but if you take one of your fired cases and drill out the primer pocket then do the locktite trick that seems to work the best from my experience. My Hornady OAL gauge worked ok but it wasn’t consistent. Much better results with running locktite when seating the bullet into the lands. Just an option if you can’t find a gauge. Take care.

So I decapped the primer from a fired case out of your rifle so air can escape. I put a small amount of locktite around the inside of the case neck then I put the bullet into the case kind of far out so when you slide it into your chamber when it meets the lands it stays as the case is being pushed forward. Leave it for 30 minutes then insert your bolt, close it then extract the case. Take your measurements and you should have a very accurate measurement of your chamber and then you’ll know where to start for jump. I believe there’s a video on YouTube of this method as well. If I can find it I’ll add the link.
