Case trimming
Re: Case trimming
I have not ever trimmed 45 acp or 9mm brass. I havent ever found any that would stretch to the point of needing it. I do however becasue I have so much of both check lengths of them. If there is a big variance of length I use the brass that is all close to the same length to load. However many Im going to load at the time. I seldom load 9mm anymore anyway as the price of it is reasonable enough to buy it.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

My .357 FCD IS a colllet style - just like for rifle. Wish I had 'discovered' it sooner!Just keep in mind the pistol caliber FCDs are a different animal.

Re: Case trimming
The higher pressure loads stretch brass much faster than Lower pressure loads.
Some Black powder cartridge shooters never trim or even resize their cases.

Re: Case trimming
I don't own a 9 mm but I do load .45 A.C.P. for four handguns. I use a case length gauge to see if the cases are within spec.
