Thanks all, excellent advice. I'm using a mix of equipment, as previously mentioned it was all given to me, .45s are definitely harder to load than 9mms, just have to pay more attention and use a lot of "feel" in the process. I'll clean out the bullet seater die, leave the nickel cases alone, polish and tighten up the decapper pin, I learned to stay away from military brass after really messing up some dies, still am frustated over the primer feeder system. Its all old (1970s) equipment so I'll clean it real well and try it again. I just ordered a set of .38/.357 dies so I'll try that next, will pick up my Colt .357 Trooper later today. (Love these Alabama gun laws, called this morning, put my name of the gun, 20 minutes from in the door and out with the gun)
