6 TCU
« on: January 15, 2009, 06:33:58 AM »
The 6 TCU case what is the correct case length max and trim reason for this question is I have found two different max and trim length for this case.  One is the same as the 223rem  1.760" max  and trim  1.750"  and other  1.750" max  and 1.749" trim.  HELP.   JIM

1.760 is max length per specs.  Trim length is 1.750.  Depending on which manufacturer's brass you use, you will likely have a much shorter case to start.   Most of my 6TCU brass was made with RP once fired .223.  The initial trimming on them was 1.730 so they all to the same length.  Several of the guys at the club use the .222mag case and trim all to the 1.750 right at the start.
