trim length on .223/5.56

Featured Replies

What are you guys trimming your cases to? 1.750? 1.740?

Thanks.

Carl

Get a case length gauge. There's really two dimensions to be concerned with. Datum line to case head and datum line to case mouth.

You'll never have a problem.  This is just one that is available.

My Giraud is set to 1.758"

Every piece of brass that comes out of the sizing die goes into the Giraud

Some get trimmed, others don't need it and aren't touched by the blade

But none ever feel neglected and cry themselves to sleep ;-)
