    I tried some at that for my Wifes G3c. Instant jam-o-matic. I had nothing but problems with my Max 9 and Ruger 95DC. I also just found a major problem from when I put my press together. The ram was rubbing up against the side of the shelf. Partly my fault and partly a design flaw. A friend of mine came over while I was sick and rebuilt that part of the bench so it’s got lots of room now. I hope that resolves a lot of the issues I’ve been having. Hydrocodone is my friend but I don’t him to meet my press. Thanks for the help guys.

    I’ve just gotten back into reloading after a 10 year hiatus, and I’m having much the same issues with RMR 115 gr FMJ-RN. I’m seeing OAL’s on charts from 1.10 to 1.30. I tried a recommended 1.120, and it turned my Wife’s Taurus G3c into a hard jam-o-matic. I’ve been told if it plinks it’s good. I dropped Blazer commercial ammo into a chamber, and they didn’t pass the plink test. I’ve loaded to the same OAL as the same size and weight Blazers. Mine were no go. The blazers were shot fine. I’m just doing plinking rounds for practice and fun, but I would like some reasonable accuracy (10 rds in a paper plate at 10 yards for SD training). How wide a variable is ok? if the recommended OAL is 1.130 and I seat to 1.135 or 1.128 is that ok? Winchester SPP and New Winchester Brass. RMR 115gr FMJ-RN. 5.5 gr Unique. Any suggestions?

    CZ PO1 and Shadow 2. I am envious! I finally managed to get the loaded cases to almost go flush in the case gunge and did a plink test, and they seemed to feed in and slide out ok. With my reloading skills still developing, I don’t feel up to reloading personal defense rounds yet and that is what I want to be doing. For now, with the 115 RN from RMR, I’m just going to stick with plinking ammo until I get that down to 100% reliability and work on some different weights and loads. Then get some of those nukes. I’ve heard nothing but good about them! Thanks for the advice David.
