Zetter Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Bit of a long story this one that follows on from my seating die issues.Basically the load info given with my .17 hornet gave the case length as 1.350" and so as my resized cases were this I primed 25 cases.However I had a load of issues with the Lee dies and biller seating depth so looked further for info and it now appears most data recommends a case length of 1.340". Scratch the title found the Answer is the difference between a case length on 1.350" and 1.340" going to cause me any issues if I load them anyway? Learn to research Zetter Saami spec is 1.350" for the case so I guess I'm fine Sorry to waste everyone's time mods can you delete this?

Walker570 Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Should not be a problem. Easy with the locking screw on the head end :-) It's only a gnats whisker anyway. Couple of turns and done. Edited March 24, 2017 by Walker570 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick miller Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Max case length is 1.350", trim length 1.340". I trim all mine to this lower length. As for trimming primed cases, I wouldn't as trimmed material could get caught in the printer anvil. You can deprime simply by firing the cases in your rifle. If you're not anal, don't bother (depending on your trimmer). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
