these cases were loaded with a 200 gr lswc, 4.0 of bullseye, federal cases and CCI large pistol primer. Crimped .469 right at the mouth and .930 from the top of the driving band to the base of the case.
Can the burned look be from wrong OAL, too much crimp or what would cause it ?

Without using the measurement from the top of the drive band to the base of the case, what OAL do you guys use ?
