Revolver + Bullets Seated Too Deep?

[cyclone]

Okay , I have a few "fail" rounds of .45ACP where the bullet was seated way too deep into the brass.......and I'm already kinda cautious about pressure issues........but it is for use in a revolver, and I'm already loading quite light loads (under 700 fps)...what do I need to know about before even thinking of using these things?

Thanks!

Pull them. Being seated way to deep will cause excessive pressure. Not good for you or your revolver.

Give us the load, and how deep is too deep?
Not enough info for an informed opinion yet.

Deep as in just barely showing above the rim of the brass......any recommendations for bullet pullers?

It'd have to be the the hammer-type of a puller, and the Frankfurt Arsenal brand works for me, just never, ever clean it with contact cleaner!

If it were me, I'd probably shoot a few and look for pressure signs.

Everyone should have a bullet puller on the bench anyway. No need to completely remove the bullet from the case, just tap them enough to get the bullet out "too far" and re-seat them.

Yeah, like this:

Interia-type puller is cheap and safe(r).

X2. No sense in shooting them when it's such an easy fix.
