lots of helpful information thanks all.

reason im asking is i bought a FCD but i guess i picked the wrong one up (308) i do want to get a FCD but they are sold out or expensive to those who have it (9mm). so its on my to get list.

i measure with bullet in 1.10 because the remington (store bought) rounds measure that. i made a few rounds to adjust the bullet seating die and this was the last round to come out let me know how it looks.

i compared it to the remington and the lip at the end of the brass near the bullet felt the same. i even loaded two rounds that matched and they went in and out pretty smooth.

also to note incase it makes a difference is there is no powder or primer in these. waiting for my powder and adjusting the seating before i use what primers i have.
