S SAGW Inactive Apr 18, 2016 #1 I have been reloading 9mm for a while now. As of right now the shortest case I have loaded has been .748". I haven't had any problems loading that length. Does anybody load anything shorter than that?

SAAMI shows a -.010 tolerance for case length. http://www.saami.org/PubResources/CC_Drawings/Pistol/9mm Luger - 9mm Luger +P.pdf
