Loading SWC
I have just started loading 45acp and am using 185gr SWC. As they are different length than hardball how do I tell if they are seated at the correct depth?

Re: Loading SWC
I use the 200gr SWC and set the OAL at 1.165. Basically the same. They feed very reliably.

Re: Loading SWC
Also, when loaded .45 SWC bullets should have about 1/16" of the shoulder showing outside the case.
