Guys, I am some what new to reloading. I am loaded various rounds without problem. But I am having problems with my 243AI. I have the Redding die set. My problem is the bullet (108 grain berger VLD) is falling into the case. I have fire formed about 90 rounds. Here is my reloading process.
De prime brass with hand tool
Clean brass in wet tumbler
Aneal brass
Re size brass in Full body die ( I also ran this die without the expander ball in and with it in)
wipe off brass with alcohol wipe.
Prime brass with hand priming tool
load brass with powder
seat bullet into case
I use this same process with all my calibers
The only thing I can think of doing wrong is When I aneal my brass I was dropping them in to water. but I have done this with other calibers and no problem. So I anealed some brass again and let them air cooled and same problem. Please any help of why I am having neck tension problems would be great need to get this gun and load dialed in.
