[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2437906, member: 313"] Not really. Without actually looking or measuring your actual chamber length you don't know how close or far your case mouth is from the chamber end. You can't just assume that you know how a chamber was cut. If a case was already .010"-.020"-.030" or more from the chamber end it would be counter-productive to cut back another .010" because a reloading manual suggests it. Sinclair makes a gauge specifically to determine this measurement. However, for those who have a borescope they could just look at the available space and make a determination as to whether or not they need to further trim the case. It's a tip I picked up here on LRH and it makes a lot of sense. [/QUOTE]
