Cone and Cylinder intersection

[[Ch...]]

Hello. I am attempting to measure this dimension here. The depth of a screw hole not including the taper at the bottom.

I am attempting to do this by extracting the tapered section as a cone, and the hole as a cylinder. Then I create an intersection plane between the two, and measure that to an intersection plane of the cylinder and front surface.

 

When I attempt to make the intersection between a cone and a cylinder, it places the result at the pointed tip of the cone, and not the intersection plane between the two. What is causing this? Thank you for any help

A blind hole depth isnt a dimension I would typically ever put on a cmm.  But you could try this:
