Sorry for the mix up

All good mate, yeah that fully confused me lol.(as you can see by the posts)

Half my fault as well, probably used the wrong terms?

WB marker test (average of 5 dummy rounds) shows
87mm OAL - projectile pressed into dummy case.

CaseOAL on left over cases from prev owner were was set at 85mm. However these were AMAX, not ELDX. Pretty similar though.

The 90+ measurement above included the comparator I believe. (So disregard)
Comparator measurement was 68mm. With 83.6 COAL it would read 66.6mm

Can we use OAL of 87mm and see what the recommended seating depth is for ELDX? Or is 83.6 default from the book?

I have a funny feeling that COAL 85mm is probably sound, I’m just trying to get my head around “the reason why?” rather than using old data.

Feedback welcome.

Cheers
