    Anybody cast the RCBS #45-230-CM?

    Can anybody tell me the bullet base to crimp groove length? I will be shooting a similar weight bullet and want to know how much of the bullet is in the case in comparison to the bullet I will be using. Thanks.

    I'll give one a measure later today--I use that boolit in my 45 Auto Rim for my Webley.

    This is not the RCBS bullet, but is the Accurate bullet which is a near-clone:

    Near as my aged eyes can read, it is .280 from base to middle of the crimp groove. YMMV
