I only use RCBS so I'm not familiar with the Lee die setup. Maybe flare your case neck slightly - Sounds like it may not be expanded enough for a good 'start'...


What he said. I reload the 30 Luger brass, and use Sierra 86gr JSP and Hornady 86gr JSP bullets. Bottleneck pistol brass is a bit harder to get your whole set of dies adjusted for, but once correct, then things go pretty smooth. A bit more belling of the case mouth, and a seating bell that is correct for the bullet profile is very important.....as you most likely know. I had a bad experience with my Lee 30 Luger dies(quality control issue), and purchased RCBS dies and have been pleased with them.
