Trimming that brass

The difference in great reloaded ammo and so so ammo relies on consistency. In order for ammo to be consistent brass that is crimped in any way must have the same length. If it does not then the shorter brass will be crimped less than the longer.

Having said that, I seldom trim handgun brass unless it is going to be used for something that i want to be better than just so so.

This is the main reason you SHOULD be able to load better ammo than the factory. You can control everything to make each round essentially the same.
