\”…After I size my clean, de-primed brass, I drop it in my Wilson case gauge. It should fall in flush, no pushing and then turn it over and drop out on it’s own…. \”

That info helps thanks.

I am running a progressive press, which means that I am spoiled as hell as to the time to make a round.

I am wondering where to check the case\’s that will be time efficient.
FWIW I have noticed with the Wilson gauge that very often small amounts of debris often keeps the loaded rounds from dropping in all the way and that a cleaning solves the problem, but is quite time consuming.

Can you check unsized brass for a bulge somehow?
(as taking brass out every lime, at stage 2 of the press, would be very slow)

Or alternately checking all finished cartridges and then if there are not a large number of them, putting them in a different container for practice rounds (or possibly to be bulge busted and taking the risk of head separation in a know container of them)

I hope this makes sense.
Just trying to figure out where I should go with this as a gun malfunction could get me killed and I do want to address it somehow.

Thanks in advance
Joe
