    Case Overall Length w/BTHP

    Re: Case Overall Length w/BTHP What I'm trying to accomplish is to establish a baseline for each of my rifles for each of the bullets I use to find out where it sits into the lands. From the reading I'd done, it sounds as though each rifle is different and each bullet can be different as...
