45 colt brass ... The rim life in Ruger only loads for lever actions
So I load to Ruger only loads in 45 colt. I use these loads in a Blackhawk and also in a Rossi 45 colt. It seems that after a 2 to 3 loadings ... The rim on the case where the extractor grabs (levergun)...gets flatter and wider...makes my lever fail to extract sometimes...
Anyone else seen or have this happen? |

I’ve loaded for numerous .45LC handguns and rifles for over 45 years and can’t say I’ve ever seen what you describe. Can you post a photo? What was the load you were using, bullet brass powder?
