Was the rifle previously extensively used with .38 special ammo, and have you taken a good look at the chamber? If there is a developed carbon ring in the chamber from the shorter cases, it could be preventing the .357 length case from chambering.

I just recently acquired a Dillon scale in a bunch of reloading equipment I bought. I've been using it since I bought it and I really like it. I can't attest to it's long term partially because I really don't know how old it actually is.

Looking to get a 9mm conversion kit for a Dillon 650. If interested, I've got a .38 Special / .357 Mag kit I would offer up in trade.

I've got a VHS copy of the film of that. At that point Richard Davis knew the vest would stop the bullet, but didn't know what the effects would be on the wearer. In the run up to the shots fired, he was visibly nervous about what he was about to do, claiming that "if this works, it'll save a thousand lives. If it doesn't.....). He loaded up a revolver, spun the cylinder to prove it wasn't staged, then fired one round into a block of putty (creating a pretty good sized hole) then turned the gun on himself. He was pretty awkward trying to figure out how best to do it, but then fired the shot, jumped up and shot three bowling pins to prove that you would be capable of fighting back even after taking a shot to the vest. He said it hurt enough to make you mad, and later at the hospital he showed the palm sized red mark it left. I used to compete at the Second Chance Pin Shoots, and survivors were welcome guests. I had the chance to talk to a few of them and one guy I talked to said he took a shot to the chest and wasn't even aware of it until after the event, probably due to the adrenalin dump.
