    How much are you belling the case mouth [?]
    It sounds like you need to set the #2 die belling stem down some more.

    Not knowing much info. Check your die, is it down too far? Unscrew die, put empty case in shellholder and raise ram all the way up. Screw down die until you meet slight resistance. Is it a lot different, maybe the lock ring moved? I don't crimp at all with the seater die, I use a taper die in a progressive for handgun ammo.

    It may be the problem.
