    Head space ?

    I am changing barrels to a CBI 308. I bought 200 pieces of new Lapua brass. I have a go gauge that measures 1.634 with my gauges. I measured a sampling of the brass. It all measured 1.618. Would it serve me well to set the barrel at 1.620? It is going to be a target only rifle. I figured if I did this it would keep me from having to fire form the brass before doing a load work up. Or would that extra case capacity be beneficial?
