As I mentioned before my last trip to China, I got to shoot a friends Colt Diamondback using his reloads.
I've also seen on TV that if you load your own, you can get more accuracy.
One of the things that appears to be a bit of a pain in reloading is trimming the case length.
In a revolver, is the case length that important? I do have cylinders for weird ammo, like the 45 ACP where it seats on the front of the case i.e. it is rimless ammo. For these the length of the case would be critical. However, for say 38 Specials, it doesn't seem to me that a little case stretching would be of any consequence. Am I thinking properly?
