Yeah, yeah.

Some of these are just frames, or saddles with the leather broken so the nose piece is no longer attached. On these I measured from the front edge of the loop where the nose clip goes to the back of the cantle plate. The others are complete saddles where I can't get that dimension with certainty, but I did my best to measure between the same two places.
