Differences:
With pistol cases carbide dies are almost a must have.
With lead boolits it is necessary to flare case mouth so you don't shave lead while seating boolits.

I have had the same problems with CZ 75B Omega and Canik Rival pistols. I had the THROAT reamed to accept PC boolits. Still the problem was the bore size. I had to run a .3580 boolit to keep the...

In my experience there is no accuracy difference between bevel base and flat base. In 45 ACP you have the H&G 068 and 069. The bevel base was made to prevent lead shaving when aligning and seating...

I saw the article in AR but it is on my list to read sometime. The rifles are too ugly to read the article the first time you see the pictures.

II RC, THE BARRELS HAVE THE STANDARD 1;16 twist. The match barrel had a tighter chamber. Its unusual that a TC don't shoot accurate.

I get similiar bad results when I let my lube get too hot. I use White carnuba red with an unregulated heater. If it gets too hot it squirts out the lube holes and mixes with air.
