    looking closer at the tips of those bullets, i would revist your die setup, all of those bullets show signs of excessive pressure applied... I.e. the bullet profile shouldn't be changed or rounded by the seater stem.  Back your seat/crimp die out several turns so it doesn't crimp at all, then adjust the seater down to correct OAL you want and see what happens.  I suspect your issues will no longer be.  Then you can try again to get your setup correct to do both operations.  

     

    If you have a FCD, i see no reason to seat/crimp in same step, just causes headaches IMO.

     

    Thanks alot, i will give that a try. 

  2. I am having some trouble with some 45 shells not chambering. They have a very small and barely noticable buckle in the case where the bullet is seated that is preventing it seating fulling into the barrel. The puzzling thing is its not all bullets? I have provided a picture of the bullets i am using and the diameter and length of each. The round nose, (2nd from left ), and the hollow point (far right) i have no issues and drop perfect in the barrel everytime. The other 2 will not at all. Any help or insight will be very appreciated. Thanks,

  3. I installed an APEX competition trigger on my M&P Pro 40. Now i am getting light primer strikes. Not all the time, but more then it ever should. I might run 20 or 30 with no issue then have 4 or 5 in a row. I went back and installed the factory striker spring thinking that might help but still the same issue. Any insight on this would be great. Thanks.

    I just aquired a spike tactical 300 blackout. As i have it now it has a 7.5" barrel and a Sig SB15 Tactical brace. I dont want to deal with the SBR stuff so i ordered a 16" barrel. I like the SB15 and wanted to leave it installed and use it as a stock. I am trying to figure out what would be the best buffer to use with this and how the short stock will work with the longer barrel. Any and all input would be great! Thanks

  6. I am talking about 9mm, those are pictures someone else posted to show they are having the same issue. Here is one of mine. This is a custom case gauge made by grams engineering to match my sti barrel. All the ones that will not drop are almost identical to this one.

  7. Yes prior to resizing i have tried them. Most will barely drop at all. After resizing alot of brands work perfectly, alot will not. Usually when they dont drop they are about an 1/8" to 1/16" from dropping. Some of the same brand cases work and some will not. Yes i have no idea what they have been shot out of. I am assuming mostly glocks on alot of them because they come from a police range. Also most are once fired.
