My comments and questions were intended to be helpful.

The question still stands: How did you measure an ID of 0.373" on a .44 Mag case?

Try setting your calipers to that dimension and inserting the jaws in the case to see what I'm talking about.

Also, bullets are supposed to be round, AFAIK. If you have strange protrusions on cast bullets, something may be amiss.

What are you using for lube?
