I'll start with two questions:
-Why do my OAL's vary far more than I expect? I would like to see them vary only a few thousandths. Am I asking too much?
I understand that mixed brass will give less reliable seating depths and I have come to terms with that, but today I wanted to load some Nosler competition grade hollow points and noticed something that leads to my next question...
-Why does my perfectly seated bullet (1.125) become (1.135-1.140) after going through the crimp dye?
My setup:
9mm and .45acp
Dillon 650 with Dillon Dyes
Mixed headstamp brass, tumbled with still pin media.
