Looks like they are all having fun. TM

Can't be any better than this one. Might want to change your mind on which one you want before El Catorce sees this. LOL TM

Might try them out after my monthly match just to try and recover the brass. TM

Thanks for the suggestion? Now I know who my true friends are. Lol TM

UPDATE: I just backed off the station 5 crimp die and then started it down until its crimp made it through the case checker. Here is a bullet after stage 4 (bullet seating with no crimp. Here is the new bullet with just enough crimp to slide into the case checker. Does this look like enough crimp to you guys? I loaded 60 rounds after this adjustment without anymore crinkles. Hopefully that fixed it. I did find station 5 die loose and not tight against the head like it should have been. Guessing it worked itself loose and I never caught it until now. I still plan on taking it down and doing a good cleaning of the plate and head area. Thanks everyone for the input. TM

Beautiful rifle, La Sombra needs to buy it so one of us doesn't. LOL TM

I can try that. I have the seating/crimping die set right now to basically just seat the bullet. I let the next station with the crimp die do the crimping. I will back off on the crimp and see if that helps. Thanks TM

I have had a few but they get caught pretty quick. Maybe 2 or 3 in the last year have slipped by my checking. TM

Me either, quess I can get a case gauge and start checking them for length. Thanks TM

I am using Cimarron Bullets which is now Boss Bullets. TM

yes TM

I guess I could be. I have had others check my crimps and all thought they were good. I will back it off some and see if that helps. I have loaded around 10,000 rounds without issue. This just started during the last couple hundred rounds and I get 1 or 2 out of around 10 loads. Thanks TM

Same here, combo die seats the bullet and then the last station does the crimping. TM

Will try this. TM

I can back it off some and see if that helps. TM

Not really sure. I don't notice it until I take it our of the tray and put it in the case gauge. TM

Not sure what sorting you are asking about. It is sorted by caliber. TM

I am starting to see some reloads that have crinkled brass. It seems to be about every 6th or 7th round out of 10. I am getting ready to take the shell plate off and clean under it and just an overall cleaning of the head. Anyone else have any suggestions or know what is causing this issue? I am only using 3.5 grains of CleanShot so the shell isn't packed with powder. The brass has a nice bell on it and the lead projectile fits into the brass fine. It is crinkled enough that it doesn't fit into my case gauge so catches them but I would like to find the cause and get it corrected. Thanks for any input on this issue. TM

you must have a awfully big pocket for it to fit in. TM

Hey Al Bundy built the bathroom of his dream with a large throne and a tv to watch while sitting on the throne. LOL TM

Keep in mind it is also not only gun control they are pushing but the whole Covid issue as well. Never trusted Fauci and his professional opinion. They have tried to destroy us. They have played with the data in everything they were involved in. Omitting key information for the liberal cause is their game. TM

Prayers up. TM

Check with Scarlett and see what her Cleanshot load is. She also has the powder available. TM

yeah, Alpo definitely has too much free time on his hands. Looks like around 80% of the posts here are from Alpo visiting the Twilight Zone. LOL TM

It was too windy and the sun was too bright. So the sun was in my eyes and the wind blew dust in them as well and that is my story and I am sticking to it as to why I had misses. LOL TM
