Hey everyone, so I took my first attempts at reloading 38 special. I used a Berrys 125 gr 38/357 flat nose bullet with Hornady dies. The problem that I ran into was that not all rounds are fitting into my wife's revolver. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of where I went wrong. Was it something in resizing phase, expanding, or the seating/crimp stage. The Hornady die set I bought uses a seating/crimping die. Its a little complicated to set up so Im thinking maybe this is where things went wrong. My first few rounds had noticeable too much crimp and those rounds definitely didn't fit. As I backed off the crimp I started getting more rounds fitting but still had rounds that didn't fit so that made me think it could still possibly be something else as well. Any thoughts???
