    My second batch of 124gr Nukes (1000ct) are markedly different than the first batch I received.

    1) The second batch is a different color, markedly darker than the original bright copper batch. Don’t care about that, just noting it.
    2) The tips on the first batch look clean and tidy with a nice copper lip all the way around the top.
    3) The tips on the second batch looks like the lead was “wiped” inside the “crater” portion of the bullet with lead sometimes (usually) overflowing the tip of the bullet.

    Because of #3, there’s a crazy swing in seating depths. I can’t reload these with any degree of consistency.

    Has anyone experienced this?
