[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 841968, member: 9215"] "...[I]I got to thinking, maybe it would be even MORE accurate to use a completely fresh VIRGIN case (unfired & un-resized). Or would that actually be shorter than the true go size[/I]??" Quit thinking; yes a virgin case is virtually certain to be smaller than ideal in all dimensions. You give us no clue what you're trying to "headspace" but actual headspace (the chamber) for a bottle neck cartridge hardly matters to a competent handloader who knows how to make his cases fit his chamber.
