    Is it an original or an Erma?

    It’s essential that you slug your bore. The average bullet size(groove depth) runs .520 to .525. That’s going to be too big to fit in the case. I can fit a .517 in my cases with a sharp rap of my seating tool, but my Erma with a relined bore has .515 groove size. You are probably going to need a heeled bullet. Moose Moulds makes a mould that may work for you. Accurate Moulds should be able to make one that suits your needs. Check out the forum on the N-SSA website,
    www.n-ssa.net and do a search for gallagers.

    varsity07840, thanks' for that great advise. will do. I bought some heads from S&S and they will not fit in the cases, same with some that I bought from TOTW. t both do not have a heel to let it enter the case. when tapped with a mallet they go in cockeyed. I am going to go with a RB.
