Thanks.

Loaders:

Thanks for all the thoughts and help.

I do use a single stage press and a powder dipper. I can't remember how many cc the dipper is, but it's the one that came with my lee die.

With 44 mag brass, it's pretty easy to see if there is powder at about the right level.

I'm using H110 and shooting a 200 gr bullet.

I'm following the specs that came with the die for H110 and a 200 gr bullet.

The first two squibs were on jacketed bullets and this last one on solid lead. All store bought bullets.

I have changed my process. I used to charge fifty cases and then press in the bullets. Now I press the bullet in immediately after I've charged each individual case.

So from all the info above I take it a light crimp might contribute to a squib?

Thanks again.

Live well, be safe
