was based on a revolver and we had a sizer die that was too loose and the bullet would spin. I had another sizer die made to tighter dimensions and did a good strong taper crimp and no more problems. If you are going to do a lot of loading for Roman you probably should get a tighter sizer die made by Lee. They are the only company that I know of that will make up a special one of a kind die. You will have to give them all the data including case mouth thickness. Also check if he has more than one brand of brass and see what the case neck dimension is on each of them.

Problem loading .50 AE, bullets too loose - WB, 2022-09-27, 12:44
