I've started reloading .45 ACP brass for my S&W 1911 and have come across conflicting information about case length. I had been trimming my cases to be between .892 to .898 in. Now I am wondering if it is really necessary. I checked the lengths on some bulk reloads I bought that I have been shooting with no jams or problems and they all measured between .800 up to .985. I've been seating all the bullets so the end result conforms to the correct finished dimensions and run them through the Lee factory crimp die.
Any thoughts?
