Getting set-up to start reloading 45 Colt for the first time and mic. my once fired brass I been saving and found the following.
WW=1.284 avg
CBC=1.273 avg
Winchester=1.279 avg
Hornady=1.225 avg
Is the Hornady cases too short to reload? I wonder why they are so much shorter than the others?
Sierra Manual lists trim to 1.280
Lyman 49th Manual lists trim to 1.275
Speer Manual lists trim to 1.275
I am thinking that the Hornady brass is too short.
