They were a little further than that - the next round barely couldn't chamber. So I don't think it was an issue of just the primer going off and not the powder?

As soon as I get a free day I plan to go through and double check and reset all my dies - especially the crimp die - and see if that solves the issue.

I have a feeling the neck tension problem is the source of my woes.
Not a whole lot of powder in 9mm to begin with--not too much more than a 22lr by weight. I had a squib like that once but luckily I caught it because the ignition report sounded noticeably different. Even commercial ammo I buy sometimes has extensive signs of gas leaking and running down the side of the ejected case.
