I have a P97 that doesn't like a 200 SWC, neither Lyman nor Lee. When the empty brass moves backwards, it catches on the shoulder of the semi wadcutter bullet that is in the magazine. I have tried different seating depths and powder charges, but still maybe 10 % jams. These are 8 round magazines with the metal follower, I see comments on the 7 round being better. Any experiences similar to this?

Thanks in advance,

Ken
