    .394" is severely undersized. What does LW have to say ?? --- SAWMAN
    The barrel is 6"

    The 1250fps is either a typo or auto correct I missed, they are actually 1200FPS but you are right they are hot.

    I'm going to get some soft lead and slug the barrel to get a better idea on actuall size before contacting LW

    Did you call Wes? The problem isn't the barrel.

    Yes I did. He was very helpful.

    What I thought was a factory crimp die, is not.

    Also picking up an actual Factory Crimp Die

    Every day is a learning experience. That is the beauty of reloading. Always something to learn.

    I got started reloading by a retiring electrition giving me all of his equipment because he was moving into an RV.

    What I thought was a 40/10MM factory crimp die was nothing more than a seating die with the seating plug removed.

    That explains why I did not see what the benifet of the factory crimp die was.
