I just finished loading a batch of Hornady 230gr FMJ-RN. I compared them to the Remington UMC 230gr FMJ-RN that I bought and the remington ones are 0.030" longer. I looked back in my Hornady manual since I used Hornady bullets and it says for 230gr FMJ-RN, C.O.L. is 1.230". I managed to get most of them between 1.228"-1.232". Then I look in my Lyman 49th and it says that for a 230gr FMJ-RN C.O.L. should be 1.275".
Are my bullets going to be okay? I don't want the whole kaboom effect!
Which manual should I side with?
