Jamison .45/110 brass

[J.B.]

More than a little disappointing to have a .010" shortfall in new cases. I would imagine they manufacture to a tolerance that allows for 'those' that dont measure their brass and arent interested in trimming cases back but that seems quite a shortfall when most of us are looking for cases that are 'right on the money' for length ..or a tad longer. Different case I know but my 44/77 Captech arrived right at 2.25" ..so I couldnt fault that...but they shortened over .010" on fireforming in the rifles chamber. Given the myriad of 44/77 chambers out there..I guess they had to allow for them being chambered in various rifles. I'm happy with the case quality and the fact they make the brass in the first place but a little disappointed they dropped back as much as they did. I'm all for supporting U.S. manufacture ( and Australian when it applies ) but for the 2 7/8" , I'd be inclined to get some Norma cases at 2.9" and trim only as much as you need to chamber.. then check again on first firing and you'll probably have cases happily chambering at 2.875" ( or even a tad over ). I guess they arent likely to change their settings now that they've done a run of brass...but a word or two in their direction wouldnt hurt for any future runs they do. JMO.
