A new to me problem has developed with me or my Dillon Square Deal B.
Loading mixed brass (at least once fired) with 124 gr JHP Montana Gold works just fine.
However, I recently loaded a batch of 147 Gr JHP Golden Sabre with brand new Starline Brass.
All goes well on the downstroke, but it seems the powder funel is hanging up on the upstroke.
So it seems the belled brass is catching on the powder funel.
I adjusted the powder die all the way down and backed it off until the bullet barely slides into the brass, but enough to be stable.
The current set up will bell the once fired brass without catching on the upstroke,
but the new Starline brass hangs everytime.
I recently purchased a single stage Lee press with the undersize 40/10mm die for a different issue.
(The undersize 40/10mm die did not correct the issue I was having with my 10mm reloads, but the Lee Bulge Buster Kit did)
I wonder, if the undersize 9mm die will help with the new Starline Brass?
Anyone have any similar issues to share on this subject?
