let me know what you think: I am using right now a projectile made locally, and having some problems with it, these bullets every now and then get stack into my seating die, I have to take out the seating screw just to free the stack bullet.and then readadjust again, it happens 4-5 times in every 100's. takes away the fun in reloading. its a 9mm. maybe something to do with the sizing, oversize perhaps? thanks.
 
Had that happen last weekend with 9mm and heavily-gooped cast bullets. One case must have been a tad short and had not been mouth-expanded quite enough. Tried it three times; each time the casing came down empty and the bullet was wedged in the die. I finally tossed the one casing and cleaned the excess grease out of the die. Worked fine thereafter, but it was, as said, a monumental PITA.
 
You can make a temporary improvement to the bullet seater by using a hot glue gun and one of the bullets to form the correct shape. A more permanent adaption can be done with JB weld or similar products.
 
its not cast, its made in Ontario ( plated) I dont want to mention the company, I never had a problem with Montana gold and Frontier.
