Official Guns Thread

Recently found an old .45 round that would always jam. I recently looked up the issue and thought it was because the bullet got pushed into the case too far causing the front edge of the case to catch something, but I thought we tried manually loading it years ago, which probably would have worked. I just now lined it up with some good rounds to see what was going on, and found that not only was the bullet pushed in a little too far, but the case was much longer than the others. I was pleased to find the plated brass to cut very well on the lathe. I also added a bit of taper to the edge, no before pic.
