I got a box of 100 .452 Hornady FTX (leverevolution) and a pound of Longshot to load bullets for my Rossi M92 Rifle with the 24" barrel. My rifle will cycle and chamber 454 casull's and supposedly shoot them but I have only shot 45 colt through it (its supposed to shoot both, supposedly) I am wanting to develop a Whitetail round with the 225 FTX's and Longshot powder gives good velocity without filling the brass plumb to the top. Do I still need to trim my rifle cases because my COL will be shorter than the Casull round, and actually will make less length in the leade. They were a gift for my birthday and had I known that they recommend that you trim your cases down (although it is not much) I probably would have gone a different direction. Any and all advice is appreciated, I do not have any other firearm that would shoot these rounds. I dont have a revolver and they wouldnt go in my 45acp or my 9mm. Just wondering or should I trim the cases down and just make like a 20 round box and reload them 5 times?
