A while back I got in on a group buy for one of Miha's beautiful 200gr rf 45 hollowpoint molds. It drops a beautiful bullet, however once I got to loading I began having issues. I'm not new to reloading, but have never had such a difficult time a round to function in a gun.
The gun is a Kimber Pro Carry II, and my problem is I can't seem to make rounds that allow the gun to go fully into battery. I'm loading on a Lee Pro 1000with a lee resizer, and powder die, and a RCBS taper crimp die. Loading .38's on this same press I've had 0 issues. My loaded rounds are 1.170 inches long and .472 at the case mouth and I'm sizing at .451. It seems that when I'm seating and crimping a ring of lead is being pushed up on the bullet. However if I crimp less chambering suffers even more. Just wondering if anyone has any die setup suggestions, and OAL guides for this bullet. Trying to post pics but need to figure out how to shrink the file size.
