Chris,
I have noticed that when forming from .221 that for some reason the necks are uneven at the top. The shoulder and neck are totally straight though. To clarify what I am saying, when you trim your brass for OAL the cutter will contact one side first.
I do not consider this a problem with forming, just trim to make square and have at it. You might measure 10 or more cases and see which ones are the shortest and use that for your case length(once trimmed square of course).
Keep in mind that upon initial firing they will grow in length some, so if you find one that is way shorter than the others it might come up to your desired size after firing. I would still trim it square though or you bullet will have a hard time seating straight. Maybe use these rounds to a a general zero.
Hope this helps,
Tim
