Treacle Trackpad Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 I usually use a Lee trimmer so don't pay much mind to the length of the case as it is done for me when I trim.. Now I am prepping my .17 Rem brass I am having to set the length myself and Saami gives 1.776-1.796" so what would be the ideal length? Max or somewhere in the middle? Cheers TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsgobang88 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Hi Steve, I would trim them back to the minimum (1.776"), do any uniforming required and then segregate them if you wish. You can then keep an eye on any case stretching from shooting or sizeing, Cheers Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
