On a loosely related thread I started below, I talked about overcamming. Another problem I came up with may be due to overcrimping. During post inspection, I found that some of the bullets would fall into the case. I used a bullet puller and inspected the bullet. Found that the lower portion showed visible signs where it was crimped. I took a measurement which was .351" - .352". Is this normal?
I'm using a Hornady Lock 'N' Load press using Hornady dies including its taper crimp die.
