    Brass too brittle

    Anneal the necks properly to the shoulder junction and try a few again

    And graphite powder the neck ID and projectile OD when assembling your ammo to stop galvanic corrosion from gripping the projectile, which sends a nasty shock through the neck upon projectile release
