    Case trimming?

    Reloading for 308 in an sps-v. If the brass length is between 2.005 and 2.015 do you need to trim it to 2.005 or can you leave and just trim when over 2.015? I have been trimming to min. length every time and wondering if I could reduce my time by not trimming each time.

    308 case capacity with IMR4064

    I started reloading some 308 today and found with 41.2-41.4 grains of 4064, the case is almost full. I am using lapua brass but tried the same with a federal case and got the same results. Is this just the nature of the 4064 powder and how it is extruded size wise or something else I am...

    Measuring pressure by measuring case web/head

    First of all, I can't find a real answer on whether case web and case head are the same thing, so I apologize if I use the term incorrectly. I've heard flattened primers isn't a great indicator of pressure. I hear that case web expansion is the better way to look for over pressure. I was given...

    Measuring Case Capacity

    I've been fiddling around with comparing brass types and found that my guesstimate of H2O capacity by filling the case and dumping the water into the scale's pan is just not even close enough. Weighing the .308 case empty, then again when filled with water, yielded 2.5 more grains of water...
