Guys,
I haven't reloaded in 10 plus years and I am getting back into it. Does anyone know of a site there the actual cases can be compared side by side or at least show the case with it measurements?
Thanks
And No, I don't have a manual as yet

If you check some powder companies websites, you may be able to find the case drawings along with some loading data. I know Accurate Powder has case drawings for most of the calibers they provide loads for.

Here. http://ammoguide.com/cgi-bin/aimasterlist.cgi?sn=pBgpRMLglr

You have to register but it's free. You can compare two cases side by side and get the detailed dimensions also.

If you have an interest in specific cartridges often times someone here will post a photo of the two side by side.....or three or more.....

like this photo of a 30 Gibbs beside a 30-06

There are so many new cartridges that have come out recently that its difficult to keep up.

STW = Shooting Times Western, these are a series of new magnums that were devoloped by and named after the Shooting Times magazine.

You might want to order a copy of the latest Cartriges of the World. While id doesn't have everything, it does cover many and they are side by each for comparison.
