I can't say I've ever had problems with a particular brand of case.

But if using a roll crimp, case length becomes an issue. While straight wall cases seldom stretch enough to worry about, variations in case length will affect the amount of crimp applied.

Personally, if trimming to a consistent length isn't practical, I would be inclined to sort into groups by case length, perhaps in .010" variations. Then minor adjustments on the crimp die can be made for each group.
