    How many magazines do you like to have for a given gun? Why?

    5 for semiautos. 3 for hand guns. and a rebuild kit for everyone of them. It seemed the cheapest way to have twice as many.

    max case trim question

    I measured after sizing and some were .010 shorter than trim length. I use hornaday 9th edition reloading manual. Max case lenght 1.760 and trim length of 1.750. Quite a few measured at 1.745-1.740. The bullet seated fine and they chambered well.

    max case trim question

    Im reloading for 223 and fairly new to the hobby. I've been saving my brass and got ready to reload, I had a good first batch of reloads. However some of my once fired brass was shorter than max trim length. Is it still ok to use and what problems can I encounter if I use it.
