      So it was excessive crimping afterwards.

      Now I have a Lee crimp die on its way, but it is OK because I (finally) read the instructions that came with the Redding set; and it says not to use this die for crimping a bullet that does not have a cannelure. Like 23O FMJs I have!
      [edit] was able to cancel the Lee crimp die and the Forster rings just in time.
      Well, HOT DOG, glade we could help!
