Default Model 52 loads

Anyone here reloading for the S&W52-2. I have been loading 148gr hbwc with 2.7gr of Bullseye.

This load has worked well for me until recently. I am having trouble with the empty cases extracting from the barrel.

The brass I am using has been shot in revolvers. Someone mentioned that there is a special resizing die for use with autloading pistols. Does anyone use such a die?

My extractor looks fine even under a magnifying glass. I think it has to be a ammo problem, actually showed up just after finishing a box.

I am trying to locate some factory loads to try but any reloading suggestions would be appreciated.
