Default 10 Gauge Trimming Retraction!

I made a mistake trimming all my Federal 10 gauge hulls to 2 3/4". I did this because the RST hulls measure 2 3/4". Some reloaded just fine and others had a "hole" in the crimp. I was reloading some SpredR's this morning and made the discovery. I do use an overshot card on non-SpredR loads so I am ok. I just wanted you to know so you would not make the same mistake. I think some of the Federal 3 1/2" shells have different base heights. That or they have swolen.

Again, my apologies,
Harry
