Hey guys,
I am new to reloading and new to the site but really excited about starting the whole process. I have a question about the minimum overall length for .308 round with 150gr hornady bullet, with crimp groove.
The Lee crimp die instructions say to seat bullet until 3/4 of the groove width is gone. I seated it and that length is around 2.715. Is that an acceptable number? I know that OAL for .308 is 2.80, but I have no idea what the minimum is.
Will I blow up if I shoot these??
Thank you for your help
