I'm probably not going to have time to dig back into this for a few weeks again. I have loaded 9mm and 40 s&w before. And I have been able to get things to work just fine. When I get back to working with 45 ACP I will either reply here or make a new post. Thank you all for the help.

After trying everything. I figured out the seating stems I have aren't long enough for the bullets I'm using to get the col needed.

I have the wrong seating stem. That's the only logical explanation at this point. I have read the instructions on the RCBS manual. And tried the tips recommended here. Nothing worked. I realized I only have the Round nose and SWC seating stems.

Thanks. Trying that. Next question. Are the cases the buckled trash or can they be salvaged somehow?

First time loading .45 ACP. What am I doing wrong? What is causing the case to crush?

Design is more important that length alone.

Some people I know swear that weight sorting is really important. I've never weighed my brass and I haven't run into any major problems.

I have the book. I started reading it.

In reality I load 3 calibers. That's .223, 9mm, and .40 S&W. In theory I load a bunch more. I have everything I need to load another 4 pistol calibers and another 4 rifle calibers. I just don't have the time right now. I have Sierra, Berger, Hornandy, Everglades, Speer, and Nosler.

For rifle 1.5 MOA at 100 yards. For pistol go bang and hit the target.

Please explain

I pulled the trigger and bought a match RIA. I'm mainly a rifle competitor. I don't want to break the bank on a 1911 in this side quest.

OP anything that makes you yearn for a Lee Pro 1000. Should not be on your loading bench. I haven't encountered anything worse than a Lee Pro 1000 in the reloading field.

I need to buy some 50 yard targets to get some practice in. For now shooting reduced targets at 25.

I went to a .40 because I had a compact .40 glock that I didn't shoot much. But I like the caliber. I have ammo and reloading stuff for it so I wasn't planning on giving up on the caliber.

Never thought about the .40 S&W profile in reference to the 1911 feed ramp. I pulled the trigger today on both so I will keep you guys posted.

I have a ton of mixed brass. I guess I have a winter project this year.

Looking to purchase a RIA Pro Ultra Match 1945 in .45 ACP. And a Rock Ultra in 40 S&W. Does anybody have any experiences with these? I intend on using the Pro Ultra Match for bullseye shooting and the Rock Ultra just for plinking.

Anybody have any thoughts on the Rock Island Armory Ultra Match 1911? https://www.armscor.com/firearms-list/m1911-a1-fs-match-5pro-ultra-match-5-45acp-8rd
