+2 on the kinetic puller

Min oal is set per powder charge and bullet weight. The same bullet with another powder might be safe at a shorter min oal. It's all about pressure. I always insert a bullet into a fired, unsized case, leaving it as long as possible, and push it into the chamber, slowly seating the bullet until the case is in the chamber. Carefully measure this dummy cartridge, and add .015 -.020, and use this for your max oal. I do this every time I change bullet profiles. I like to load long, for safty sake.
