(Those would be B, G, and A in the cartridge schematic some posts above here)...

You could PM them to me - No sense cluttering up the thread with more posts...

Might as well post it here, others may want it too

*IF* I'm interpreting the diagram correctly:

A, case OAL: .838"
B, Head dia: .412"
G, Shoulder dia: .395

If my terminology is off or these measurements don't make sense, someone chime in - I'm a Belly Dancer, not a ballistician!

Headstamped "H.D.S. 8mm NAMBU"

Be interesting to see how this compares with others.

Thanks for your help!

That one seems suspect...It's the area just in front of the groove....412" seems kind of high...That's why I am soliciting measurements; the Handloaders Guide shows .407" but on my 'W C C 6 6' 8mm Nambu case I'm seeing .377"...
