There\’s the rub, I still use a single stage press! Much easier for me. No, you can\’t check an un-sized case easily/quickly for a bulge. An un-sized case won\’t ever seat in a case gauge. Yes, I have my air gun hose down beside me to regularly blow debris from the case gauge and press. You could maybe just run all your brass thru the sizing stage only and check each case when done, then finish off with the different stages with the non bulged cases. Yes, it\’s a time thing. You can run a finished round thru the bulge buster no problem. Maybe just drop each finished round thru the case gauge and the ones that don\’t just freely drop in/out put aside for a bulge buster run. You shouldn\’t really have that many, I don\’t. My CZ SP01 has no problem with the slightly bulged case rounds, it\’s the match barrel guns that will hang up. I had a live round stuck in the chamber once and I couldn\’t get it into battery to fire it at the range. I brought it home and beat the slide back with a mallet to finally eject it out. Scared the hell out of me while doing it. I told my wife, don\’t be alarmed if you hear a gun shot coming from the garage!
Happy Thanksgiving and shooting!
