Did you get the issue figured out? One thing I didn't see mentioned was the size of the boolit relative to the die. I've had the same issue and noticed that the bottom of the boolit diameter was...

Good Morning GM,

Sorry to hear of your news, I have a friend that just received some bad health news also.

I'm in SE OKC, I'd be interested in your collection to read through and eventually...
