There is a work-around if you aren’t a handloader, but it’s not a fantastic work-around. But I wanted to share this so if/when you experience FTF’s, don’t think that something is awry, it’s very much set up this way specifically.

I have a DAO PPC revolver. Have never heard to use Federal SPP in it. Like Strawhat, I use a lot of CCI and also Winchester SPP when reloading for it. My revolver was made by August F. Behlert.
Are the Federal SPP made with thinner metal? Different composition of metals?
