Case length variations

Dang! Have not seen that in handgun cases. It's also why I seat and crimp in two different steps. Using a Lee FCD, case length isn't an issue. Has worked for me and many others without issue, if you adjust them correctly. Which is simple.

Shoot range pick up brass that you've been collecting 30 years you find some.

The 0.040" short cases are from Hornady FTX. Unless you have a bunch, just toss them.

Parallel to small primer 45 ACP.
