Leave it ...
Trimming 300 Blackout to 1.360". A couple came up shorter. So how short are you willing to go for plinking rounds, before you pitch the case? |

How will it matter? I'm thinking at some point neck tension might be too little.
I could well be over thinking this, but I'm still too inexperienced with rifle reloading to not ask the question. I'd rather ask a dumb question than risk a setback bullet and a kaboom. How short? That's what I'm trying to get a feel for -- some are 1.3585 in the current batch (not really worried about those), some from an earlier batch when I was first learning my trimmer are circa 1.353, with a couple down around 1.343. I simply don't know what is an acceptable "floor." |
