[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 495592, member: 13833"] Ya, I can't seem to not be messin with somethin all the time! I've been trying to get some more length in my cases for a while because the 300, especially, shrinks about .025" in length when you form a .270 or .280 into my case. The factory RP and WW cases are only 2.525" or so when new (not 2.540") as advertised. I ordered a box of 6.5x65 RWS from midway and they measured 2.552" avg:D. Also, they don't seem to shrink as much because the body is already considerably longer than a .270. The downside is they are not really made out of brass but GOLD! I can tell by the price. I'm told I will make up the difference in case life and uniformity though (we'll see)? [/QUOTE]
