Alright . . .
I went and took pictures, but I can't upload them through dialup. Can't even post the whole wording. HOWEVER, I can send them through email, so PM me your address and I'll send them if my word won't work for you.
Using a 200 grain LSWC bullet with a Brinell hardness of 16, measured out, exactly, to .4520 diameter using 2 calipers, I loaded an Amerc 45 ACP case. Yeah, Amerc is thick, but it appears on ranges and that's what us normal folks load for pistol . . . range brass . . . whatever the headstamp.
After seating the bullet with a standard taper crimp, there was a signifant bulge in the case from the bottom of the bullet to the mouth (pic). You could see it with your eyes and feel it with your fingers . . . all the way around the case. continued
