Ammunition & Hand Loading > Cartridge and Shotshell reloading
Help I don't know whats going on here
unfy:
As ghknives said - too much lube.
The lube will form little pockets / bubbles as it's being pressed through the die if you have it too thick. Brass will easily deform compared to trying to static compressed a dense liquid like lube.
If you ever do some wildcat'ing or cartridge conversion - you'll find yourself wiping off lube every couple of strokes just to avoid them dimples / "pitting".
addition: having run 30, you're now building up lube within the die itself as well :D

Thanks for the help I'm still new to this so I'm sure I'll have more questions as I progress with my reloading adventures
Dan W:
As long as the lube dents don't interfere with chambering they are OK to shoot and the dents will pop back out
fortunateComa:
These are all range pickups, I figured I would learn to reload with these before I reload something that cost me money.
unfy:
Inspect your brass for cracks and signs of head separation. Especially free range organic brass :D.
Otherwise, feel free to reload it. Give it a new life \o/ . Ask questions - we got a range of experienced friendly folks around here. Welcome to reloading life!
