No big deal mainly because I am not a "production" reloader and a few seconds of prep is fine with me...

Ditto - both with S&B and new Starline have experienced hard to prime with a Lee Autoprime. Definitely S&B needs very small chamfer. The new Starline after it was fired once was easier second priming but did not need chambering from new. as a BTW - *-* is 455 and it will be interesting to see how many reloadings it will do as I only load light loads for all my 455s so will be keeping a close eye on this new brass.
Keep all this good info coming:-)
