A buddy of mine has a few pro-shop smith and wesson revolvers that don't like cci primers. I have been told the cups are harder. I've loaded thousands of rounds of 9mm with cci sp primers and have...
Why do you say that? The op didn't specify if he was loading lead or jacketed bullets.
I've never used it for lead bullets but itis a great powder for 230 gr fmj loads.

I'm confused, .4333 is larger than .4325 so how is the lee FCD shrinking the lead? Or are you saying it is bulging a bit ahead of the crimp?

I agree this is an issue with the slower powders ie 2400 but i haven't seen any data of that happening with faster pistol powders. Except for the sse claims with powders such as Tightgroup with tiny...
How can you say it isn't possible? The gun was a s&w 327-5 8 shot cylinder puts them kind of close together. It most defiantly did sing the soft lead on the next bullet.
H110 is my goto powder in my .480 Ruger. I loaded some 125 gr Remington half jacket hp in .357 HOLY ****! Having that big of a fireball at the end of my arms, no thanks! I swear it was a basketball...

Ok, so your an expert. Just relaying what my chronograph detected.
During the last primer shortage all i could get my hands on was mag primers so i did some experimenting. No the primer alone...

With a powder such as tight group in 45acp with a 230gr fmj about 1500cup the only way you could get into trouble is if you are at max loads with reg primers. tight group for instance list a starting...

1 grain drop? Seriously. I've tested mag primers vs std primers in both 45acp and 9mm. The mag primers were barely 100 fps faster than the reg primers with the same powder charge.

25-35 Winchester is close to the dimensions you listed.

For some reason the lyman dies have less of a taper ground on the bottom of the die. This causes it not to seat fully in the press. What i did is add a 1/4-20 nut to the top of the rod under the die....

I have one in 9mm with the ati stock and red dot on it. It is a blast to shoot and quite accurate too. The ATI stock takes care of the ugly factory stock!

I figured being the brass hoarder that I am, it was worth the time and effort. I must admit that there is no way I would do this for 9mm or 40 S&W, there is just to much of this brass laying on the...
