I tried to convert a LC .308 case to .243 today but once it was resized the case measure 2.025. Looking at the Lyman manual, the trim to length to is 2.035 and my case is too short. I found a link to the SAAMI specs on a similar thread and the drawing there for .243 goes all the way down to 2.020. Is this ok to load and shoot? Will the case grow a lot when I shoot it?
