Trim To Lengths for .264 LBC?

[Babaganoush]

I've seen conflicting information on Max Case Length and Trim To Lengths for 6.5 Grendel.

Hornady says min length is 1.506" and max is 1.516".
Alexander Arms recommends a min length of 1.520" and max length of 1.526".
Hodgdon States a trim to length of 1.515"
Ramshot and Accurate list a trim to length of 1.50"
Lapua lists trim to length as 1.516"

Now having read all that, I concede that those #'s are meant for general specifications.

The question is; "What Max length and Trim to Length does BHW recommend for their .264 LBC chambers?"

Thanks for the help!

I'm using 1.505 for my trim and 1.515 for my MAX and am happy with that on all my LBC cases. The slick way is with the Sinclair chamber plugs but I have been too lazy to make up a case and check my chambers.

Thanks Greg.

It may be a small thing, but it's a new caliber to me, and I don't want to learn by destruction.
