I have been working on Lad Dev for my 6.5CM.
Figured the CM was the easy button as some say to get my process down correctly so I know what I am doing for other rifles.
Right now I have some loaded up to find my charge weight. Then plan to tweak seating depths.
My question is on trimming the brass to length.
I have about 15 cases roughly that are at 1.922 in length. Max case length by my book shows to be 1.920.
Bought a trimmer as it was one piece of gear I did not have yet.
My question is how far back to trim?
In looking it looks like Min case length is 1.910 Max is 1.920.
Should I just split the difference and go to 1.915?
Its not great brass (Hornaday) but its all I have right now for my CM.
I also do not anneal if that makes a difference.
At least I dont yet.
