For some reason this was never a problem on 45’s for me.
So True !
It may be a PITA to check for each bullet and for each gun but it's the only way ... If it doesn't plunk in your gun's chamber ...
It isn't going to work .
Forget any magic measurements with magic measuring tools and get back to basic old school reloading .
