[QUOTE="Forester, post: 387069, member: 11102"] The crimp was what I would call middle of the road, hard to quantify with a roll crimp. I did not [I]start [/I]below book loads, but with a load right in the middle of what a couple different books recommend the primers were flattened, dished, and generally looked like WAY to much pressure. In addition, the gun shows pressure early with every powder I have tried. These include: 800X, 231, Clays, and HS-6 (All powders I had on hand) I used to load and shoot 25-30,000 rounds a year worth of 9mm, 40S&W, 45ACP, and 38spl. when I was shooting USPSA and IDPA regularly so loading for a handgun is not new to me, but I have never seen a handgun behave this way.
