[QUOTE="David Emerson, post: 1794302, member: 112579"] An easy way is to seat the intended bullet to the oal length you want. Set your caliper to .263 and make a ring on the ogive of the bullet and then measure to the mouth of the case. Some people need to overcomplicate things. Keep in mind your 6.5 Winchester short will move the lands forward fairly quickly so I would subtract .040 from your measurement. [/QUOTE]
