I purchased 1000 cases of 40 S&W. After learning about Case bulge, I acquired the Lee bulge buster. I ran all the cases through the bulge buster and all has been well.
Question. Do I need to run the cases through the bulge buster after every use? I fire them in an M&P and an XD40 MOD2.
I tested a few cases and they didn't go all the way through on a Hornady 40S&W case gauge. They don't have a great a budge as when I received them (assuming they were fired from a Glock).
If the answer is yes, is there a way to keep from having to do this such as reducing powder? I have been using WST and Sport Pistol
I'd really like how the 40 S&W shoots and would like to use it as much as my 9mm, but having to run the cases through the bulge buster after each use puts more time into reloading for that caliber vs reloading for 9mm or 45 acp.
Any advice is appreciated.
