That could absolutely be the problem. Did you measure the cases before you started trimming? Some once fired cases are below the trim to length to start with. When you load them up make sure that you are at least crimping in the canalure and not below it.I'm using a brand spanking new Lyman Universal Case Trimmer...
I'm at a loss as to why the lengths have veried as much as they have... They are all once fired mil brass. I'm wondering if it has to do with the differnce in the size of the primer pocket since I'm having to remove the crimp. The Lyman trimmer has ball bearing thing that goes into the primer pocket to help keep the case in place. If the primer pocket is a little bigger then wouldn't the the case length be longer than a case with a smaller pocket? .
Well thanks for the info.
Yes, there were a few that didn't require trimming. Out of 500 cases I believe there was less than 10 that measured below 1.750.That could absolutely be the problem.
