Recently staged to load some fresh .357 magnum rounds and ran into a problem this morning. 2nd batch of loading hornady XTP 158 gr with 15.grs of H110. Went to crimp 1st bullet and on the up it ripped the case in half about a 1/4" below bullet. Removed the crimp die and took it apart to remove the top half of case with bullet. Inspected the die no damage. Anyone have any input or suggestions would be appreciated. My only thought at this point is to bell the case a bit more???
