A modified case can help determine seating depth and powder charge. I have made and used them. Basically your making case with a collet neck.
You need a Scribe, square, small piece of angle, and a dremil with cutoff wheel. Lay out ink or a marker help a lot.
Ink the case down the body and all the way around.
Lay out one line with the angle down the length of the body.
With the square mark a line 3/8"- 7/16" from case mouth ( this is the collet portion of the neck)
Now mark a line 1/2" below this one.
Right side line goes to case mouth left side connects the 2 lines scribed. What you want is a 4/8 section of mouth and a "window" below it.
With the dremil cut right side line from bottom line thru case mouth. Cut left side line from line to line.
cut lines from cut to cut forming window.
Deburr edges inside and out
To use hand seat bullet long and chamber carefully closing action , carefully open action and remove round. Pinch the neck and measure overall length. then measure down from case neck to base of bullet in window. This is where powder charge, wads, and compression need to end up -.005-.010.
THe split neck allows overall length to be found and you can mathematically figure base point. The added window allows the base location to be measured.
