    Rolling Shoulders

    Alco bullets are rebated boat tail design. Seen this happen when “donuts” are involved, Necks need to be sized to remove irregularities inside neck. Use a 22 degree chamfer tool. Also check bullet seater plug, make sure tips are not bottoming out, easily fixed, drill it a bit deeper.
