I'm trying some new .223 bullets and I'm using the gauge in my gun. I'm writing down my measurements to ogive ( usually 20 for an average) and I found myself staring at the Hornady case. I suddenly think I've been doing it wrong. I size my "good" cases using the Boyer method. Remove firing pin and push back shoulder for slight resistance on bolt close. The Hornady case is not formed for my chamber or zero headspace in my gun. Are my measurements to ogive therefor inaccurate? Seems to me they would have to be off.
