I need a favor to ask all the LMT mws 308 owners.
Can you measure your headspace on fired brass? I get a measurement of 1.623" from base to datum.
Also, what tool are you using. I have received some possible reasons as to why my numbers are different
from some other LMT's out there but I would really like to see some numbers if possible.
Thanks,
 
Headspace is the chamber, not the cases and cases are lousy transfer gages.

Your fired case shoulders will be a thou or two less than the chamber. Adjust your fl sizer to put the shoulders back to the longest fired length and go, that's all that needs to be known or done.
