Do you always have to trim brass?
There is no set rule as to how often cases should be trimmed to length. Some calibres will need trimming more frequently than others. If you are using a ‘pokey’ load, and by that I mean a load that is near the top end of the pressure range, brass tends to flow more and so the cases will need trimming sooner.
Is 30 Cal or 9mm bigger?
You must first understand that most U.S. standard calibers are stated in inches, while metric calibers are stated in millimeters (mm). We see a lot of calibers like 5.56mm, 6.5mm, 6.8mm, 7mm, 7.62mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, etc. So, a 30-caliber bullet is actually 0.30” diameter, but it’s also a 7.62mm diameter.

What is the typical case length for once fired ammo?
My reload manuals say the typical case length is .754″. On measuring some cases I find the once fired length is closer to .745″ (+ or – .002).
