I started loading my first rounds after almost 7 months of Reading, Watching & Buying equipment.
I'll be loading .45 Auto with 200g LCSWC with 7.0g of True Blue @ 1.267 recommended by Ramshot loading data.
The first 10 rounds would not fit in the chamber at all (Too Much Flare i guess), so i took them back to the single stage and applied more crimp to them. They fit in now.
It just feels like i'm using too much crimp as the resistance on the press raises.
I'm using the 3 set carbide dies from RCBS. Some of the bullets lube are being scraped into the crimping die. Is this normal?
What's the best way to adjust the seating/crimping function of this die?
I'll be taking some pictures to show you my progress.
Thanks guys
