6BR case trim question

[cycbb486]

I am wondering. I am on the start of my 4th firing of approx 150 cases and am getting no growth in case length. They have never been trimmed from day one. They all hover around 1.555-1.556 inches. I thought that there would have been some growth but none whatsoever. Should I leave well enough alone or knock them back a thou or 2 to make sure they are all even?

I am not overly concerned about this but just wonder why there has been no growth.

Clavin, I'm up to 15 reloadings on some 6BR cases and also no growth. The dies and chamber are a good match so there isn't a lot of squeezing and stretching going on, it's a wonderful thing. You could even them out but it won't show up on paper.

I'm sure you have heard the old saying- If it aint broke don't fix it.
A good match up between the case and the chamber will allow a ton of reloads before the 6br needs trimmed.
Lapua brass is so good I very rarely do anything to it but turn the necks for the .262 necks.

Thanks for the info.
