Just getting into rifle reload and started trimming some 308 brass today. I'm trying to trim to 2.005 however when I go to measure them they are 2.006 or 2.004 or 2.007 give or take a thousandths or two up or down. Sometimes I noticed that if I spin the case around in the calipers the length measurement changes slightly. Either way Im not getting consistent reads. How important is the brass length really? As long as I'm within that magic number of 2.005 by a thousandths or two I should be good right? Just going to be target rounds and hunting rounds out to about 100 yards max.
