Re: 38 spec length
You may be onto something.
Since the chamber tapers the bullets may be too "fat" and gets hung up at a certain point.
Is this a home cast bullet? (I'm guessing the Lee 125 gr. ?) If you have a micrometer check diameter.
One test some do is drop the bullet into the chambers. Clean chambers, oil very lightly.
Do they fall straight through?
Do they catch but using a wooden dowel or unsharpened pencil can be pushed through?
Do they catch, can't push through and tempted to use a mallet? Try not to get them seriously lodged and push them back out.
This will help rule out one variable.It ain't what they call you, it's what you answer to.
