I don’t know if this will help or not. Are you loading for a semi-auto pistol? I had zero luck getting SWC bullets to feed in my Springfield or Glock.

It's an EAA Tangfolio. It's the bottom semi in the pic and as you can see, I've reloaded SWC previously. Those were 180 grain bullets from Laser Cast (laser-cast.com). I too had feed issues with these bullets, but once I put a heavier crimp on them, the feed problem went away.
Hornady's 10th Edition Handbook says for a 185 gr. SWC Target, the COL should be 1.135". This is WAY TOO short so I don't trust the powder data in it.

I’m glad you have had success with fixing the feed issues. I tried varying depth and crimps but had no luck. My load data is in the building. I plan on getting out there later today. I’ll see what I can find. Good luck.
