Brass did not need trimming, therefore I did not chamfer the mouth. I will do so and see how that works.
I don't think that chamfering or lack thereof is an issue, as the bullets made it in the case. If they get hung up before you even get a bullet in, that would be a bit different. I like chamfering and deburring though, and will do that on new or once fired brass, after trimming. It might not need it, on brass that I didn't trim, but I like to clean it up a bit and in my imagination it makes starting bullets easier.

I don't see a need for trimming if it's not needed, although it may be nice for consistency sake after firing it once.
