I haven’t used every powder measure imaginable, but I have used RCBS, Hornady, Dillon and 2 types of Lee, including the Auto Drum, and case length variations among mixed headstamps has never been an issue.
It depends on how you set them up. In the past, I have intentionally set up powder measures on the long side. Before I built machines that could sort 380 from 9mm, I culled 380 because the powder check die would detect no powder.
However, I would tend to agree assuming they are all the correct length case and not some range pickup where someone trimmed 45 ACP brass to use in a GAP chamber or other goofiness, I’d look more towards an incomplete cycle of the measure.
