That is what I thought first. But I am standing there after shooting and the top bullet & powder drops on the floor empty brass still in the magazine. I have shot several thousand re-loads with the settings one the press and dies. Now this.

I measured some factory rounds and they had a crimp diameter of .380 to .379. The rounds I had re-loaded had the same diameter. I squeezed some down a few thousandth. I will test them. The moly acts as lubricant I think.

Thanks for telling me about the Reloading Forum. Didn't know. I will spending some time there. And here too.
