Ive had a few and you need to pay strict attention on your powder drops, When you hear or feel that pufff, stop, clear and check.

I take a plastic tiped brass rod with me now in my gun case.

Be safe

I'm a slow learner so it took me a long time to get it right. I tape a light over the seating die so I can see how much powder is in the case before I put the bullet in. No more squibs!

It's a good malfunction drill anyhow. Just don't tap-rack-boom, or you'll get a real BOOM alright!!!! :-)

That is a ******* when it happens, though, I would get furious and embarassed LOL

I joined the club last week - unsettling, for sure. I will be hyper-vigilant reloading from here out.
