I would have turned the BT part to .308 just as a bullet.the outter lip should be just enough bigger to just be able to get the measurement.not really what to say.do you really need the handle part no.

when you get your measurement of your chamber just trim the brass back .010 and you will be fine.

no do not use the Lee trimmer when you come up with chamber Over all length.it will cut to much off.but it might be able to be set not sure.( by unscrewing it out )most likely you will need a new trimmer one you can set to the length you are looking to get.
