I'm using a Rock Chucker Press with Lee 3 die set. Brass is RP with Winchester .224 FMJ BT, 55gr. The Brass was timmed and all within .002 of each other.
I loaded a batch of 50 and some of the bullets seated way deeper than the others. So I checked the remaining bullets and they did not measure consistantly. Ok so that accounts for why some of the bullets seated so far that I can't see the cannelure, but...
I have 4 different COAL's. I'm getting 1.710, 1.715, 1.720, 1.724. It's like a made several small batches or something. The overall difference is just too much, and I don't understand why a PRESS is creating the different COAL. I can understand the cannelure issue if the bullets are no consistant, but not the COAL. The press should creat the same COAL all the time. Any advice? Thanks in advance.
