Mine did, someone else had issues.

I only roll my own in 454 brass now... Too much to give up by shooting factory 45 colt. With 300gr @ 1900fps out of the 16 inch trapper, it's a lot to shoulder. I'm hoping the 360gr hardcast at around 1600 are more of a shove than a smack to the shoulder.

If you want to shoot 45 colt, get the 45 colt version. You should be able to load them up to Ruger revolver levels just fine.
