    Could trimming back thicker walled mag brass be of use in combatting the bulge?

    I asked a brass producer about this. The answer was that the internal taper on the Casull brass could be so long that if it was trimmed back to .45 Colt length that the taper might interfere with bullet seating. i was surprised at that but it answered the suspicion my question was based upon.
    And, as large as Model 1909 chambers are it makes me drop back and say, "Ah ha!", because maybe the added metal thickness could work just right.
    Wish I had a few Casull brass to try it out.
