I know these hulls have a bad reputation, but components aren't exactly plentiful and I was able to get the Fiocchi hulls, primed. I'm going to keep my WinAAHS hulls stashed until the .410 shortage eases up, if it ever does.
They load OK, but I'm getting these weird "smiles" on the mouths. The mouths of the shot shells look like a pair of lips. Where the "lips" are, the crimp and crimp punch settings look good. But "the corners of the mouth are lower than the rest of the hull so they crimp punch doesn't even touch them.
Hard to explain... I hope it shows in the photos.
I'm loading on a MEC 600 Jr. that is quite old. I took off the crimp starter and crimp dies and checked them out. Everything is clean and solid.
Any ideas?
