[QUOTE="307WYO, post: 853024, member: 58848"] According to the Nolser book, my load of 88.4 grains of RL-25 is in the middle of thd powder range though.....showing 96% capacity. The light load theory makes sense to me but just not with my load. For an update: I loaded the exact same setup in a new case from a separate batch. I didn't size the new case either. (I did run the previous cases that were dented through my sizer) The thought being the new brass is already smaller than once fired brass so bumping the shoulder helped create the issue. Results: 1.) same load in new unsized brass from different batch= no dent 2.) same load with the original new unsized brass= no dent 3.) new brass ran through my sizer with 92gr retumbo= no dent. All in all, I think sizing the new brass was a mistake on my behalf and maybe a bad batch of brass. [/QUOTE]
