I was a little overconfident when I made these rounds. In fact, I've narrowed it down to the automatic powder dispenser ever so gently crushing my brass. I haven't had the time to reset everything, but no biggie as I have no time to shoot right now anyway. I may just bite the bullet (no pun intended) and buy a freedom bucket from Cabelas just to run some copper down the pipe.

To answer your question, I have to ask my own question.
Dafuq does FL mean? I measured the overall length, and the diameter of the neck and base of my brass. But I'm finding that I learn things as I go on. I had no issues with my 357, whether in my revolver or my lever. I guess I just got a little cocky when it came to the 223.
