Starline brass. Colleen got me a large batch of 44 Special Starline brass and when I run it thru the Dillon at stage 2, where it bells the mouth and drops the powder charge I have to stand up and use 2 hands to get the belling funnel out of the case. I have actually worried that i would break some of the linkage on the Dillon. I have heard that 45 ACP and 45 long Colt brass is having the same problem. I have tumbled the brass, lubed it and still the same thing. Starline is getting like Brownells, getting too big too fast and not watching the small stuff.
