When repriming 44 mag in my Dillon 550B, the brass rims on the cases are getting twisted sideways, and about one in 3 get jammed on the shellplate, so that i have to pry them off. Ive tried everything, tweeking the metal rim retainer, tightening shell plate, reaming primer pockets, and still the same result. Not a deal breaker, but just annoying. It happens the worst on this newer batch of WW brass, which the thickness of the rim is the least, allowing for the twisting/wedging action to be amplified, as there is more room to twist sideways because the thinner rim from top to bottom.
