    Your good. Even new brass will come in under minimum case length, the neck will be short by like .005. Your rim thickness is a more critical measurement in this case. I forget the numbers exactly but new .303 brass is .064ish and military brass is like .070,, again I can't recall exactly right now but you get the drift.
