I've been stocking up on Grendel reloading supplies for a little while but I've yet to reload any yet. I want to get comfortable reloading 45 ACP and potentially 556 too, before I start reloading for my Grendel.
It's been a slow learning process as I haven't had much free time in the past 9 months.
Anyways I'm either making a mistake in flairing my brass or I have a problem with my dies. Everything I've seen, the bullet slides into the brass to some degree after flairing. I'm not experiencing this, the bullet will only sit on top of the brass until I seat it. I've tried flairing to the point the die contacts the shell holder to lightly flairing the brass with the same results.
I'm using RCBS 3-Die Carbide Set (.45 Automatic (ACP)).
I've tried working with RP and Winchester brass.
I've tried Nosler 230 gr FMJ, 230 gr JHP, and Hornady 185 gr XTP.
I know this isn't Grendel related, but I respect the opinions on here. However, I'm justifying it as this is leading up to me reloading Grendel. HaHa
Thanks in advance!!!
