The Original Lumpy Gritz

I did search, found nut'n..... That's why I asked.

It was a Asphalt base adhesive they used. The same thing that was used on their military ammo. What page on the forum would I look at?

Please fill us all in on the history of your mould making shop.

You have to shorten the seat/crimp die.

None

Not his first day! Did wonder why he didn't use penetrating oil on all the machine screws?

What's the TIR of this runout? You want less than .003. Try this, seat the bullet 1/2 way, lower the ram and rotate the cartridge 180*. Then finish the seating.

Why you should never wet clean brass with the primer in place

Any updates?

Gotten the same for me.

Have you tested the feed with any factory ammo?

Widder I have used the Lee FCD on my FA .454 Casull since 1997. Never had a bullet hold issue. What is your source for that information? Do you have a link? I use the FCD on all of my handgun ammo and have need seen this issue.

No biggie Just for cit's & giggles, try the other cylinder in this problem gun.

That 'latch' is called a cylinder stop.

You sure you have the correct cyl in each one? Starting to sound like a weak cyl stop spring or worn cyl stop or BOTH.

You need super thing screwdriver blade for the side plate screws. Also a 12mm socket for the stock bolt.

Use copper anti-seize on the threads

No, not without PC.

They are off way more than you think! Why I went with an adjustable bar on my 600jr.

If your irons can pop CCI primers, you're GTG.

Never trust a MEC powder or shot bushing to drop what the chart size it will. Search E-bay for an adjustable powder/shot bar.

Use silicone spray instead

WHO?

NO FILLERS! Use enough powder to compress 1/8-3/16" with a .060 fiber wad when bullet is seated. DO NOT COMPRESS WITH THE BULLET! Plan on using a blow tube for fouling control.
