Hey guys.
I just wanted to ask if anyone else has had major issues using CBC brass in 9mm?
I setup my Dillon 650 last night to try a new load. I set it up to go with 1.050" OAL, 4.0gr of HP38, and a 124gr MBC smallball. After making my dummy rounds I threw in 100 pieces of CBC brass (I segregate all my brass by headstamp) and the seating depth was all over the place. Were talking + or - .015". The flare was now too small and it started shaving bullets. Also primer seating was way too hard and inconsistent on some pieces of brass.
I went back to my tried and true Win brass and OAL was now within + or - .001" and the flare was consistent. From what I've read elsewhere, this is pretty common with CBC brass.
Anyone else notice this?
