the moly was annoying. i didn't notice that they were moly bullets until i opened them. really messy.
there was another major hiccup, but i'll just shoot all those primed cases and re-prime them. nothing dangerous.  |
eeh, what kind of press are we talking about here?
single
turret
progressive?
What kind of crimping die do you use?
What kind of crimp did you set (did you measure the good ones vs the bad ones)
