So far I've only loaded about 100 rounds of 357 sig. The first 50 were all using nickel plated Speer cases and I didn't have any issues with them.
The second set however, I used once fired Winchester brass, everything case gauged and plunked in the barrel, however, the gun wouldn't go into battery with them. If I gave it a light tap, it would go into battery and there was no bullet setback or any other marks on the round. I'm guessing I messed something up (neck adjustment? - I did reset the sizing die between when I ran the first batch and the second), but figured I'd solicit some advice before I make any adjustments. If it plunks and spins, shouldn't it go into battery? Sig P320.
My setup is a Dillon 750, Dillon 357 sig dies. Using RMR 124gr MW bullets with a 1.41 OAL, Crimp is .3770. These same bullets with this same OAL worked fine with the Speer cases.
