    Oh Man, bad batch of primers.....

    Why don't you pull the bullet & powder on a couple. Then set the primed case in whatever you use to prime and see if you can feel the primer seat when you nudge it.

    First Time Loading Cast Bullets in .45ACP Semi-Auto

    For years my favorite has been the Lyman 452460 (200 gr SWC) over 4.5 grains of 700X. My 4 cav mold is older than than the hills but it is a very sweet casting mold. Using scrap lead I'm shooting for less than a nickle a round.
