Okay, here is a picture of a Blazer (left) next to my reload in the middle. The bullet is a 230 gr. I have not pulled it apart, but from my notes I was using between 4.3 and 5.0 gr of powder. I probably loaded on the lighter side. Also, I just used a caliper that I purchased. The Blazer measures about 32.15 mm, mine measures about 32.5. Not sure if all my reloads are too long, or what a normal variance should be? I think I only kept 2 of the bad reloads. Hope some of this helps.
