Trim case too short?

[garandman]

Is it possible to trim a case too short?

My reloading manual gives a .308 a case length of 2.005, but I got a case length of 1.990, or 0.015 too short.

Is that a problem?

Thx

Are you measuring after the case is sized? They tend to grow a little after sizing. If not, I would still say you are okay.

I'd use it unless there is something else questionable about it.
It will only get longer with use, especially if you FL resize a time or two.
