My Lee Loading manual lists the "useful case capacity" for the .38 Special case as 1.30 cc, and the capacity for the .357 Magnum as 1.15 cc.
I'm curious as to why the shorter .38 case would have 0.15 cc more capacity that the longer .357 case. Also a little concerned, as I'm working up some loads in each cartridge that will come the closest to filling the case.
Hoping someone can enlighten me.
Thanks
