Is the slide locking back after the last round?
Every time I've run too light a powder charge the slide won't lock back on the last round.
I won't crimp with the seating die at all for the 45 acp ,screw the seating die out more so it doesn't crimp and screw down the seating plug to get the right oal.
Use a lee crimp die and just crimp enough to take out the flare and chamber smooth.
I want to say the slide locks back only 50% of the time, maybe less. Thanks for bringing that up as I forgot to add that in my original post.
The way I went about "crimping", I was backing the seater stem back a few turns and just screwing down the die body down onto the bullet until I couldn't turn the die body down anymore with my fingers. I was just going off the directions that RCBS supplied with the die set.
