I just built up 100 round of 125 gr lead .38 special using a mix of winchester, r-p and IVI brass. I noticed that out of 50 rounds built with the IVI brass almost 30 bulged aroudn the bullet and would not feed into the revolver. I did not have this problem with any of the other brands. Is this brass weaker than the others, should I get rid of it?
With the bulged rounds I was able to run them through the resizer with the decapping pin removed and was able to resize the assembled round to where it would fit into the chamber. Is this a safe thing to do or should I pull the bullets and chuck them next time? I'm still pretty new to this so any help would be appreciated. Thanks
