[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2791939, member: 1521"] Your choice should also include your level of control. 5 to 10thou off chamber end should be easy enough for any bolt action. When I fill out a reamer print I put chamber end 5thou off new brass OAL. On fire forming the necks pull back to increase that clearance a bit. Because I don't FL size, I usually never need to trim. One thing I do by habit, that I was taught around ~48yrs ago, is to glance at fired case mouths. Any shiny spots/flats, time to check trim length. This was demonstrated to me then, and I've seen it with cases in a range bucket, but I've never seen it with my brass. [/QUOTE]
