I am relatively new to reloading and I have been working with IMI Brass (Once fired), Fed 210M Primers, WIN 748 Powder (43.5 GR) in a Sierra 168SMK Bullet at 2.8 COAL in a Dillon 550b. I have used this load in new casings and it works fine so it has to be in the process of using once fired casings.
I am testing the rounds and when I shoot the round the casing gets stuck in the chamber. I have to hit it with a rubber mallet (not hard) to get the casing out of the chamber. I fully resized the brass and checked it in the chamber of the rifle that I was going to shoot and it worked fine coming in and out. I only lightly touch the casing for any crimp at all. Can any one tell me what I am doing wrong in this process?
I have read numerous books on reloading and I have a general idea but I have no mentor so I am asking some of you guys for what can possibly be the issue in my process.
