Inconsistent OAL

[fguffey]

but a lot of us get it wrong.

One say someone is going to suggest 'the lot of you' to quit kicking the can down the road.

The ogive measurement from the ogive to the case head is another measurement.

. . . when I want COl (case overall length) I measure from the top of the bullet to the case head.

The case does not have 'overall' without the bullet. . .

I think someone is confused.

"COL" generally means Cartridge Overall Length - logically enough, since case length is only one component of that dimension. The "Overall" part means "all elements, including case and seated bullet" - of the assembly known as a cartridge.

There was an Internet reloader that covered the reloading forums like the wind; he did not own a press but reloaders bowed to him, when forced to get technical he got angry.

Needless to say reloaders were scared of him.
