I've been cutting my 308 brass with a Lee cutter for years,and mine comes in at 2.005.Thats ten ( .010 ) short from SAAMI.In all truth it best to cut the case only ten ( .010 ) short than what your chamber is.For this will help your chambers throat from burning out as fast.There's not many who do from what I've read.
