Hi
Could someone confirm the dimensions of one of these please? I'm not sure if it has been trimmed. Currently
it is 260mm overall.

For interests sake here's the shell case markings:

OA length is 260mm, yours is not trimmed.

Hi
Thanks, for about the last 20 years I'd been under the impression that it had been trimmed and just used it for a
poker stand, value - zip, well 9.2 lb of brass anyway...

It's such a stumpy case. Now I understand why the gun itself was a bit of a wimp.

Cheers
