Hello, fellow gun guys,
I just joined because I have run into something I had never run into before.
I have done reloads for quite a few years and not blown my hand or eyes off so, I know a little.
I have just recently decided to reload 9mm Lugers. My reload manuals say the typical case length is .754". On measuring some cases I find the once fired length is closer to .745" (+ or - .002). I have checked a fair number of different brand cases (I bought some once fired cases in bulk) and all are around .010" short. Does anyone here know anything about this?
Thanks for any help.
