The rifle was a CZ Model 3 with a 24-inch barrel. COAL was 3.303 inches. I set the seating depth using a Stoney Point (now Hornady) O.A.L. tool and the .308 collet. That is the measurement that I record on label.

I just miked a couple of the loaded rounds: the overall length of a loaded cartridge (base of the case to tip of the bullet) is 2.930 inches.
