another 243AI question
What are all of you using for brass and what case length do you end up with.
Do any of you use brass other than .243 brass.
thanks, dave

I use winchester brass and norma. Both seem to form well and hold up nicely. Case length max is the same as standard 243.

after fire forming win brass the length shrunk from 2.35" to 2.18" and i gained about .100" in the body. the length of the 243 win brass NECK before fire forming was aprox. .230"
And after it was formed the neck was the same.
Why is the brass shorter???????
