Ok, I did a search for this, but didn't really see it covered though I am sure it has been "beat to death" somewhere here...
I am fairly new to cast boolit loading. My question pertains to Cartridge Overall Length regarding various and different cast boolits. Logically, you can interchange loading data with boolits of the same basic design and weight. But what about COL? Obviously, just where the weight resides in a boolit can vary with mold manufacturers as well as the boolit shapes, and thus the actual length must vary.
For just one example, I have some Missouri Bullets cast boolits I have bought, but no actual data for them. So, how do you determine the safe COL for a boolit for which you don't have direct data??
(Presently preparing to load cast boolits for 9mm and 44 mag, though others will follow....)
Thanks in advance for any input!!
