Are all bullets of a given grain weight going to be the same length? I mean if I buy 125gr 38/357 bullets from different brands, and use a powder that does not have specific load data for that bullet type (ie; 125 FMJ vs 125 LRN) can i assume overall cartridge length will always be the same? Or will the bullet's manufacturers have data on their packaging specifying their COL?
