New to reloading and have came across an issue. Just bought some ADG brass, previously i was using Nosler. I deburred all the cases then i full sized them. When I full size my cases I remove the spindle from my die because I'm using a Sinclair carbide expanding mandrel to set my neck ID (.283) in the next step. When I started sizing the ID of my neck with my expanding mandrel, dipping my case neck in graphite media prior, randomly I started getting cases collapsing. I would like to know what I am doing to cause this. I never had this issue with my Nosler cases. If any veteran reloader would like to talk about it over the phone due to not wanting to write a lot, send me a message and I can send my number.

Hornady Custom Grade 28 Nos Die Set
Hornady Single Stage Iron Press

Thanks

Josh
