your problems are in your brass and sizing. Full length size,full length size,full legnth size.Winchester is a light brass. Starline is actually made at the same plant the winchester's are but seem to be a little harder brass. Derringers are bad about over expanding the cases. Thats a lot of heat and force in a short barrel. Measure the empty case and make sure its still with in the sami spec or if its been strecthed. Just because it was factory ammo does not mean its new or even once fired unless you buy brand new empty brass you never really know.Full length size every time.Guys will argue it shortens brass life which I can see there points, but I feel its a must every time you load. It only takes a minute and you can avoid troubles like these.Make sure your not overcharging the cases as well. You very well mite find that 8 grains of powder is fine in the revolver but to much in your derringer. Before you run your case threw the expander die check and make sure the bullet doesnt drop in to far or youll have to resize again or throw that cartriage away. Not having a crimp on a bullet will cause it to come farther outa the case not further in and I read it to be that your having troubles with bullet seating depth before you even took the reloads to shoot. A good reloading manual should have all your cartriage specs and acceptable lenghts. If you dont have it I highly recommend sierras 5th edition or speers reloading manuals.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
