I just started loading some cast lead Lasermax Oregon Trail 200 g LRN 45 ACP bullets. I have previously loaded jacketed bullets with no problem.
I am using Lee dies, including a factory crimp die. When I run my cartridge in and out of the FCD, I can feel a lot of "bumps" as I operate the lever and the cartridge goes in and out of the die. I have not noticed this feeling when I am loading FMJs. What would be causing this? Is this normal? The finished cartridge looks fine, and I fired 50 rounds of it this morning without a problem.
