I have a commercial Mauser action, a Green Mnt. short chambered 35Whelen barrel, an Ackley Improved Clymer reamer, and Forster '06 family go gauge. For a one time project, could I reverse seat a flat base bullet in a new case for a go gauge and use the standard go gauge for my no go? My understanding is the AI version is .004 shorter to achieve a crush fit at the neck/shoulder junction.

If this won't work, why?

Thanks.
