The flash hole looks jacked but I don't know what that is.

What caused that?

 

[Shadowrider]

Nope. The flash hole is just fine. That's just the residue that I didn't clean out. My camera even in super macro mode can't focus that low.

Looks likes your brass has small pistol primer pockets instead of large pistol primer pockets.

About the only thing worse is finding a few .45 Gap in your brass bucket.

Looks like NT brass to me. Not a big deal on a progressive. Just remove it from the priming station and move on.

Just throw them in a bucket till you get a few hundred and load with small pistol primers.

I thought it had a funky shaped flash hole.

Bingo...

How often and how can that happen?
Wouldn't they catch that during mfg?

I thought those were Winchester's "Win Clean" loads. I didn't know anyone else was loading SPP's in .45's. Whoever had that idea needs to be waterboarded for about a week....
