[Reloads don't chamber in 625]

That sounds exactly like the issue I'm having, they always got 90% in but not the last bit. Mine is a 625JM made in 2013 I believe. I should mention the Dillon case gauge I have exhibits the same behavior so I wasn't going to blame the gun just yet.

[Reloads don't chamber in 625]

Hello, I have been trying to figure out the root cause of oversized rounds in my 625. I'm using Dillon dies which I've just now read might not be resizing enough. They all drop in after resizing so I think it's bullet bulge that seems to be my problem, after I started to flare the mouth a bit more and seat bullets more carefully there are less out of spec rounds. I've started separating all of my loaded ammo in different lots to help identify the cause, but I figured I would ask to see if I'm missing something obvious before I keep loading more. It was a problem with both 200gr and 230gr lead bullets sized to .452 and .453. I really don't mind sorting all the brass by headstamp and loaded size, but the 625 is my only gun they won't chamber in, all the other 45s are just fine. The brass is all mixed, but a large majority of it came from my guns and I don't have any 45 Glocks so proportionally I don't think it could be glock related.

I like being "the revolver guy" at my club level matches. I don't spend much time picking up brass since it comes in nice little packages of 6 when I'm done shooting, and I found that I've become a better overall shooter after concentrating my time with DA revolvers this last year. I need to put a bit more thought into how I shoot each stage and make each shot count which has helped a lot to improve my scores. There will always be a few semi-auto guys who chuckle when you open that cylinder during LAMR but they'll stop laughing when the timer does. I ran my 625 faster than the whole CDP divison at our Aug. IDPA match and snagged the overall fastest time on one of the six stages. As BillR1 mentioned most people assume that revolver reloads have to be slow which isn't the case. I've thrown my fair share of loaded moonclips 6 feet down range, but with a bit of practice they are much faster for me than reloading a bottom fed magazine. Before anyone gives up on a revolver I suggest they shoot for at least one season to get used to it. I'm sure guys who switch over from revolvers to semi-autos are far more frustrated than going the other direction.
