Too Heavy on the crimp
Ok...first, I usually only load my brass once since I seem to have an endless supply of the the brass (if I ever run out of the bucketfull I already have). Second, I went pretty modest on the crimp (Lee Factory Crimp) for the next batch I made and no more jamms. I ran 20 through out of the the 80 I made. I tossed my last few boxes I made back in '01. I have been sorting out the Federal stuff too! Thanks for all your help! Bill Oh, and I use a case gauge for each and every cartridge to eliminate the possibility of length problems.
