Hey all - in an effort to make my reloads more reliable I have begun to case guage all of my complete rounds before bagging them up. After loading 600 rounds I found 41 that would not drop in or out of the case guage on their own. I decided to set these aside and fire them separately to see if there is any real difference. Mostly it seems that the ones that don't fit have a slight bulge near the base of the case, just above the rim.
Oh - these are .45 ACP 230 gr RN, copper-plated Rainier; mixed headstamp; Win Large Pistol Primers; Win 231 powder.
So, this gives me an "error" rate of about 6.8%. ... or maybe "error" isn't the right word...?
Does anyone else do this?
