Just started reloading and am having problems with rounds not fitting properly in the chamber. If I remove the chamber from the gun and put a round in its gets stuck. I've been reading up a few books and it looks like its not crimping correctly.
It must be my setup as I"m new to reloading but can't figure out how to fix it.
I've got a 2nd hand Hornady pro-jector loading press with a mix and match of dies. The deprimer station is working fine. I've setup the expander die so there is a slight bell for the bullet. This looks fine too.
Station 4 is a Hornady Seater 9mm (100_7441.jpg)
Station 5 is a RCBS 9mm LU Seat #3 78 (100_7440.jpg)
First of all will this setup work?
On the Hornady seater I adjusted the die so that it just touches the plate, and then adjust the top knob for depth. (28mm - PMP brass with Josyd 115gr 9mm bullet)
On the RCBS die I've adjusted the die so it touches the plate and then done one turn back. Whats does the spindle on top adjust? If I move it down too much then it pushes the bullet further into the case. No matter what adjustments I do here, it doesn't seem to have any effect.
The last pic of of the round in the chamber.
Where am I going wrong?
