223 case length
Preparing to load for the AR with a bunch of prefired cases I came into possession of. Speer manual lists min/max case length of 1.750/1.760 respectively. Many of my cases are 1.740, can they be loaded and fired safely with charges close to starting for an initial fire forming/stretching?

Good to go.
I trim mine to 1.742 to get an extra loading or two out them before they stretch over 1.750 at which point I trim them back down.
