My brass after sizing measures .375 after belling .377 so my crimp is .373 does this seem right ? I used to crimp to .377. I haven't changed anything on my loader. Wonder could my caliper be off ?

Measure your bullet that is a somewhat of an acurate measurement.

Also it could change depending on brass used. I've had them move from brand to brand or after multiple reloads, possible brass is longer. Have you checked cases yet for length before loading or sizing. Try to measure size measure

What machine are you loading on? I was having a similar problem on my s1050 and no problem on a 550. I raised the swage die (F) on 1050 and problem went away. The swage die was enlarging the case....makes no sense as it worked fine on 9mm ....
