Hello,I'm new here.I've hunted all my life,but only been reloading for a couple years,.I reload for most of my centerfires..I never owned a 7mm-08 till about a week ago.I ordered brass bullets,and dies.The bullets are blems from Midway,but I'm sure they are139gr flat based Interlocks..my order came in,and I figured I'd load a few..Lee's Modern reloading states 2.8" as min. length for 139s,but is very unspecific as to what particular bullet..When my new bullets are seated at 2.8" the crimp groove sticks up past the brass..I did bump a couple down to the cannelure,and the load is not compressed,but I'm a little worried about pressure...I know that most 7mm-08 shooters reload,so I figure this would be a good place for advice..thanks
