[QUOTE="Goofycat, post: 304931, member: 6504"] When you trim your cases to "the same length," do you mean that you trim them to the shortest case in the batch? How much variance from SAAMI case length do you consider a safe deviation from maximum case length, or at least a variance that provides you with good accuracy? I just completed trimming cases and found that the shortest case was .005" shorter than the maximum published length. I haven't been able to get an answer to this question, so if cases are not over the maximum, I just use them, even though their case lengths slightly differ by a few thousandths of an inch. So....should I be trimming to some average case length that is shorter than maximum, or should I find the shortest case and trim all the rest to the shortest case length? [/QUOTE]
