452-228-1R 45 Not chambering

[Al_Bundy]

I had the same problem and do what Texas by God does, set it deep enough to chamber then give it a hair more for insurance and crimp hard enough to hold it but don't get carried away.
I got a TL452-230-2R and that solved the problem without deep seating.

Thanks man, gonna send it back to amazon for the 2R.

OAL is always gun & bullet specific. You are just loading too long for that bullet in that gun. The fat ogive of the 1R makes seating deeper required. Nothing wrong with the 1R, just try it shorter, like 1.240". No such thing as seating too deep if it functions.

Even in my 1911 barrels that have some throat I cannot seat the 228-1R longer than 1.220."
