I've only been reloading since summer but during that time have loaded about 6 thousand rounds. My .357, .44, .45acp, and 10mm rounds have been fine, but I have had trouble with 9mm failing the plunk test.
My search here suggested marking the case with magic marker and doing so I found the cases that don't fit the case gauge were rubbing approximately
.230 from the base. When I measure the failed cases, I am unable to detect any variance from the cases that pass.
Here is where the statistics get interesting, this is based on my latest batch of 500 reoladed rounds of 9mm.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :banghead:

7.2 percent of the reloads failed the plunk test
12 percent of my reloads were CBC Brass (which according to my search is Magtech)
91 percent of the failures were the CBC Brass
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :banghead:
