Well, I'm real new at this and I just finished trimming a bunch of fired 38spl brass that I purchased from a LEO up the road. 300 cases didn't take me that long and honestly I feel a lot better knowing that I have a good starting point for my reloading. I used an original Forster case trimmer without any power assist and once I picked up a rhythm, I kind of enjoyed the quiet time.

A while back I was playing around with some spent cases of my own and I was surprised at the different lengths I found. As I was thinking through the process, and I came to the seating and crimping point, I decided that a consistent case length was best.

Now that I have that length logged in, I'll watch those cases in subsequent reloads, and make decisions from there. I don't own all that many guns, so other variables will be at a minimum. I don't know much, but I know repeatability is key.
