D4HighDesert Report post Posted July 5, 2021 I poked around on the search bar and didn’t find anything really relating to my question but maybe you guys have seen it before. I reload quite a bit of 9mm and occasionally I’ll get batches where one side of the shell has a little warp in it where the base of the bullet is, where as the other side is smooth. It seems as the the bullet has gone is slightly crooked but the tip looks flat when held in a micrometer. I recently loaded up some 124 gr Sig V-crowns made by Sierra and lots of them did it. Mixed brass of Speer, Winchester and others. All of them seem to cycle in my Glock, Sig and S&W just fine so it’s not exactly an issue but I’d prefer to not look at it lol. Any similar experiences? Both rounds in the picture have the little warp but the left round is facing the camera to show the warp and the right round is facing the warp away to show the smooth side. Any input is appreciated. -Randy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
