My load is 5.2gr of wst with a Montana gold 115gr jhp mixed cases and whatever primer I have on hand which is usually federal or Winchester loaded on a Dillion 550 the press as it charges the case it also bells the mount to accept the projectile. Then I taper crimp with Dillion die very lightly just enough to take away the flair in the case mouth it’s not done as a crimp to hold in the projectile but to reshape the mount for feeding my oal length is 1.135 the oal is as long and still function in all my mags berreta sti hi power glock khar hk ar15-9mm runs my full auto as well. and a few others the projectile its is 0.550 or 13.99mm in lengh about 4mm of projectile is in case just touching or very lightly compressing the load don’t have xray vision to tell exactly. This is my do everything load cant remember vol but power factor is 127 out of a sig 226 and a sti2011 with a kart barrel at 15 feet at about 100 degrees at 1100 ft alt. I also will use same load with a 124-125 lead projectile. This in my guns as well as 10-15 guy at the club is safe but every gun, barrel and component and especially the crimp and loading technique is different so reduce by 10% and start there

It’s the anvil in the primer. The anvil is kind of shaped like a 3 pointed star. And can very in size from component manufactures that sells the cup, primer compound , and anvil. Since they can very in size and placement in the cup. So when your pin goes through the flash hole it lands in the area where the anvil is not and catches and doesn’t kick out the primer. The Dillon dies use a spring style decapper designed to pop out the primmer with assistance of the spring. I’m not in my gun room to look at the dies. See if you can screw down the decaping pin. If you can’t then you need to template the pin since it’s just worn out engouh for that manufacture of that primer. In the mean time. Unscrew the pin and gently peen the end with a hammer that will dent the pin and make it a hair longer it may take a few try but it’s the cheap way till you can get a new one in from Dillion
