I would send it back to whoever made it, and have them look at it.

Before you answer, I have two suggestions.

1. Since you are using dummies, seat the bullet considerably deeper, and try the dummy that did not work again (don't use a bulged case).

2. Also, if...

It's been a while. I have a couple of questions. Are the bulged rounds fired rounds, or are they coming straight from the press like this?

Are you using new brass, or fired brass?

Do the good...

If it is with live ammo,...

If you are adjusting your Bullet Seater die that way, I don't think it is necessary to adjust the die all the way down. I don't know if the redding die has a crimp function in it, but if it does,...

What bullet weight are you using?

I had a similar problem at first when loading 125's. I loaded them too long, and found that the bullets were hitting the rifling, and sticking in the chamber. I...
