I stopped using gas checks years ago.
I keep my velocities under 1800FPS and put a dab of lithium grease on the base of each bullet before seating it in the case. Have never had a leading problem.

Maybe just me but, I've never had good luck with mounting gas checks. I try and stay with plain based bullets in my handguns.
