All cases are brass.. Some shot from my gun, some not... All are brand named headstamps.. (R&P, Win., ect.) Midway took great care of me.. They are shipping out a new die right away no shipping charge, and I don't have to send back the defective die.. O.S.O.K. Just wondering, do those...

Do any of those dies leave a ring or groove towards the base? It is deffinatly shaving brass from the case.. I called Midway.. They are shipping me out a new die tomorrow!!

Im getting about 4.65 at the mouth.. And since the shell wont go all the way in. It's still it's post fired size 4.75... I tired using lube. And no luck.. I have this same Carbide set for my 40sw and the cases are sized with no problem at all... My biggest concern is the groove that it seems to...

The problem doesn't seem to be from the decaping.. The fit of the shell into the resizeing die is so tight, it wont go all the way in.. There by leaving a grove 3/4 of the way down.. The samp on the die says 45acp. Anyway is could just be a bad die?

I just bought a Leeman carbide 4 die set to start reloading 45acp. When I try and resize/decap the shell I can only get in the die 3/4 of the way. It does knock out the primer but leaves a little grove where the shell stopped in the die. What do you guys think?

Thanks for all the quick answers guys.....

I bought some Hp-38 to load my Hornady 180gr TMJ. However the only load data I can find is for the 180gr Hornady XTPs. Would it be worng to use that load?
