Case Length .223?

[svencool]

I'm still waiting on my reloading books to get here which is suppose to be Friday Amazon says. I got the last part I needed from Sinclair to trim my cases and was wondering if someone could look in there manual and tell me what the length is suppose to be? Thanks

+1 I love these things. Just loaded 150 308 rnds this weekend and every case was over book max of 2.015" after prep. But the Sinclair case length gauge says my chamber can accommodate a 2.042" long case. Without this $7 part I would have done an extra 450 operations (trim. chamfer & deburr 150 cases) just on this one reloading session. My advice is skip a couple lunches and pick one of these up for each caliber you reload.
