    T/C 44 Mag Hotshot Factory ammo

    Could someone who has a factory made hotshot cartridge as the title states, please measure the OAL of that cartridge ? Also if you could measure the plastic (capsule) portion that protrudes from the case.

    Thanks in advance.

    I have 2.18" COAL in my load book. The only loaded ones I have are in my saddle bags at the moment.

    I have some capsules with shot in them, and some speer empty capsules. Nothing loaded, factory or otherwise.
