Hi folks,
Finished reloading my first batch (30 rounds) of .303 british, and I checked just for the fun of it the length of the brass. I did trim them before loading, but for some reason I must have missed one, it measures about 0.01" more than the prescribed 2.222" (measures something like 2.23").
I know the potential danger when firing is a bullet that would get "grabbed" and pressure would build higher than expected; question from me the newbie is what would be the tolerance (+ ou -) that one would look for when trimming the case?
Thanks, I am finding this reloading stuff can become quite addictive.
