I am setting my dies for the .45 and now have a few qestion.
How far down do I need to flar out the case?
I have seated the bullet to 1.270, out of the Speer reloading manual #12, pg 558.
Bullet is a laser cast, 230g RN .452
I have made some unprimed samples, and when I cycle them through my 1911, twice a bullet came out of the case and became lodged in the barrel, do I need to crimp?
I also have a Lee crimp die handy if they need to be crimped.
Thanks for the help.
