Here's the update.
I reset my Dillon crimp die as per the instruction, and ran a few FMJ rounds through the press. The rounds dropped into the chamber gauge just fine.
For grins I run a small number of the LSWC bullets through. The OAL is now 1.24. The brass diameter at the crimp point is 0.471. The photo of a representative round in the chamber gauge clearly shows the problem. Now look at the exact same round dropped into a Les Baer barrel. The results are not what I expected.
The gun also goes into full battery with this round. Am I off to the range?
