I've found several of my factory chambers to be longer than expected and have adjusted my trim length to accommodate them.


That's what I do as well, my chamber ended up at 2.042 measured with the modified case and Sinclair. My brass on its 3rd and fourth firing is all at about 2.025 right now. Actually started a hair below minimum from the get-go with reformed 7 SAUM brass.
