glock brass

I have some glock brass that the sizing die  is not taking out he bulge  from the brass fired from glock ..I am using Dillon dies  the cal is 40 s&w is the another resizing die I can use to size glock fired brass back  .I have a Dillon 650  sometimes I run it threw the sizing die couole times sometimes works . I have die down to were it just off the shell plate a hair that it doesn't touch

Timbo,

  Redding makes a pass thru die that I use on my 40 S&W brass. I put the die in a single stage press and go through a bunch fairly quickly. Because of the type of shell holder with a spring, it won't work with the 650. This requires a 2 step process to loading that caliber, but as far as I know, this is the only caliber that gets the "Glock Bulge". I've attached tubing to the top of my die and it feeds it around into a bucket on the floor. It's availablr from Midway and comes in 2 varieties, carbide and steel. Get the carbide, not lubing saves lots of time. I have a rock chucker adjacent to my 650, so once I prep the 40 S&W brass, I just dump the bucket into the case feeder and I'm on my way.

diveji, thanks for the mentioning the tube directing the cases to  bucket.  great idea, I'll have to try that. 

The standard solution to this problem is to use a size die that goes further down on the case head - Lee works for most people.

Get a CasePro and the bulge will be a problem in your past. Expensive, but worth it.

I use the Lee dies in .40 S&W, no issues with "Glock bulge."
