[QUOTE="Gene, post: 384450, member: 7402"] It is not a good idea to use factory or SAMMI spec lengths, as the end of the loaded case could contact the end of the barrel chamber, depending on how it was cut. This could cause pressures to skyrocket, not a good thing. For that reason, most reloaders trim between .010" and .020" below the SAMMI lengths. There is no good reason to do otherwise. [/QUOTE]
