Still loading the 45 with 231. I did notice the projectiles are binding a little at the outer edge of the chamber. Some that were really a tight fit had a millimeter of scratches on the jacket around the base. But then I also noticed those cases were not as well cleaned as some others that were just fine. Sizing off some factory loads I seated them all a smidge lower. between that, a good gun cleaning and running the cleaner longer next time I might have cleaned the issue up.
