Most bullet makers put the crimp on their bullets so they come close to standard OAL for that caliber.

Of course the style of nose on either lead or jacketed copper bullets will vary, as well as the amout of bullet below the crimp area, so this is a +/- of the actual measurement thing but the finished product should be very close to factory specs.
