    Marlin .30-30 with 311041

    So a while back I thought I had found "the" load for my Model 336 SC with Ballard rifling. 28.0 grains of Reloder 7 and a 311041 sized to .310 was the ticket. So I loaded up a hundred thinking I...

    Gas checks are not necessary for the 429421 Keith boolit. My go-to load for my 4 inch Model 29 is 9 grains of Unique under the 429421. Deadly accurate and easy on the wrist.

    Actually, the length of a fired 3" 12 gauge shell would be 3" to a max. of 3.010 for SAAMI specs. But as Cap'n Morgan stated above, the only resizing that's done on a shotgun case is the base.
