Dangit! I made about 250 of one of my usual .223 recipes. 68 grain Hornady BTHP with 24.5 grains of TAC and a CCI 400 primer. Started to load mags and the bullets were scraping the front of the magazine. A quick check showed I didn't have my o.a.l. right..... it was 2.268+/-. It appears my die loosened up or something after the first few. So back to the press to reseat to correct depth. Unfortunately, because I was reseating a crimped round the resulting o.a.l. was not consistent. They vary now between 2.263 and 2.249.
OK to shoot anyway? |

Quoted:
Be sure you did not flare the shoulder when trying to force the bullet down to the correct seat in the reseat rework. This is not an easy induced flaw to spot. I hope you have a guage like a Wilson handy to run them back through. <––––- heading to check rounds with case gauge. Thanks, I knew there was something else I should do. |
