[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 1917700, member: 5302"] I've never seen any official case capacities listed. Too many variables across all of a given cartridge. The only way one would be valid is to have the case outside dimensions at some standard. SAAMI cartridge case specs for instance. Otherwise, fired cases and resized cases would have different inside volumes. Out of round cases have less capacity than perfectly round ones. To say nothing about case weight. A 40 or 50 grain spread in case weight makes a difference. [/QUOTE]
