I doubt that your gun would be closed enough to fire if the extractor were not over the rim. I can mention a couple more things. Don't leave too much lead shoulder exposed out of the case. About a sixteenth of an inch is enough. And do slightly crimp the case mouth. The exposed lead will slide up the ramp better than the sharp case mouth will. Too much lead may jam the bullet too far into the bore. It may also shave off a ring of lead just above the case mouth, and if that stays in the chamber it will shorten it. If you're using carbide dies, they wont size as close to the bottom of the case as the old steel dies will. But with them you have to lube your cases before sizing. If your chamber is slightly oversize, the carbide die will leave a bulge. I bet your seating depth is the problem. Reddog
