I have a question regarding case trim lengthts. My Hornady manual has a case trim length and a max case length. For example: .22-250 max case length is 1.912" .22-250 case trim length is 1.902" My question is, Can the brass whose lengths lie between those two measurements be safely loaded without being trimmed? | ||

ABSOLUTELY...they want you to trim when you get to "max" length. And they want you to trim down to "trim" length. You want to be in between. | |||

 YES  rogerOld age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone.. | |||

Yes, trimming is not really necessary until the max case length is reached. Each time the case is fired it stretches a little bit. Resize the cases then measure for length and resize when they exceed the maximum length. "Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult." | |||
