Now that I'm home from work, I decided to take a look at my Speer 4628's. I looked at about 40 of them, and they all look the same - the crimp groove is in the same location. And I'd say they look like the second one from the right in your pic.

The distance from the base of the bullet to the crimp groove is about .375" (difficult to measure accurately).

I've got a batch loaded up (38 Special) and their OAL is 1.472" +/- .002".

Hope that helps.
