Definitely should check every case to confirm it is within OAL spec.
Sampling is not acceptable for this step.
What I do, to make it easier, is set my digital calipers to max, 1.520 in this case. Then lock it down with the setscrew. Now every case walks thru those jaws... if it passes, slips easily thru, ok. If not, and I mean if it does not easily slip thru, then off to the side for trim-down. No exceptions!
Maybe it's tight, or even just "stick" a tad at one spot... no exceptions - off to the trim bunch.
Then trim and chamfer inside and out. VLD for the inner chamfer. (This - do for all cases, whether trimmed or not).
OCD types will trim every case every time. If you use a crimp... then need to trim to equal length every case, every time.
ps, what are the OAL's of some of the ones that shot ok... for the record I mean.
And... can you get the shoulder datum for these, maybe not for the one kaboom but the others?
