all, trying to compile a list of a-square bullet lengths for reloading. I have been using woodleigh for the dead tough and barnes mono for his mono solids (i scale the barnes length by navel bronze vs brass density). but would like some actual measured data. Appreciated any folks here can measure some lengths for me. thanks

Hmmm, that’s a pretty significant difference. I measured with a Starrett.

Looking at the photo of the three together the Dead-Tough and Lion-Load are not the same length.
