With double thumb pressure I can set the projectile back with a "snap". When I say double thumb pressure I mean one thumb on top of the other with the cartridge pinched against my curled index finger using all the muscle I can muster. Though this is far from scientific but I tried it with a factory cartridge and could not move it at all.
What called my attention to this was when practicing yesterday I had a double feed. I cleared the issue and then when picking up my brass I noticed the setback round on the floor. Now, did the double feed jam cause the setback? IDK.....
Should I look at sizing or crimp as the culprit? Thanks guys.
