Headspace is the critical measurement of free play a cartridge has within a firearm's chamber, essential for safe and reliable operation. Incorrect headspace, whether insufficient or excessive, can lead to dangerous malfunctions like extraction failures, case bulging, or catastrophic case head separation.
