    Nominally .224, hornady 50 VN v-max. Factory box (shorter projectile) vs pulled V-max 50 gr, with cannelure.
    I have 2,000 of the longer ones and am concerned that although nominally the same weight, much longer and in a 223 case with H-335, it will compress.
    Note that in a true flat surface they both weigh 50gn. WTH.
