I need the case wall thickness of a 444 cartridge at the neck area. Somebody have one handy that can measure it?

Thanks

I got .009 measured with a dial caliper. FB

I get .0105" by measuring a loaded Remington factory round.

I've got some new Hornady brass that seems a bit thicker, but it hasn't been stretched over a bullet yet.

I just measured a virgin R-P case, using a digital caliper and got .012 at a depth of .25"

Used cases, R/P, .0115 with digital calipers. FYI
