Learned something (again) today. I had never loaded the DEWC in 38, so picked up 500. I was doing pretty well, then noticed a bulge in a case. Uh oh.
Pulled the bullet..

took my small hole gauge and micrometer, and checked it. .375" down to an obviously thicker wall right where you see the bulge. Searched this site, and haven't seen anything about that. All I've seen is PMC is a little thicker than most. Used my small hole gauge and started going through my brass.
Looks like PMC isn't suitable for DEWCs.
