Reloading mistakes

[74man]

I am the kind of person who would rather correct a problem or thought there might be a problem at the bench even though I really did nothing wrong, than to find out at the range. I have taken apart loaded rounds to find out I did everything right and nothing wrong. Takes a little extra time but being retired I have the time. But my experience in reloading could fill a page for sure but the problem "NEVER" left the loading bench. I think the stories would be funny!!!

Did you figure out why they would not cycle?

Yes, too lite of a powder charge for his rifle. Our Carbines were just different. Different ages, levels of maintenance, different amounts of wear, ect.
