In combat there’s no time to ask why.
Plans get you started the rest is improvised.
Improvise adapt and overcome.
Don’t trust the locals.

I've used my SDB for a lot of .38 loading.
+1 on the cleaning of the die.
Also, if there is any difference in the shape of of the cone or the diameter between your two bullets, that might account for your variance.
Fretless as OS posted, do both the pre-lubed and coated bullets have the same shaped tip (i.e. RNFP, RN, etc.). Again as OS said check the diameter of each. If the diameter between lubed and coated bullets is different you may have to adjust the cartridge bell. With all things being equal your SDB should/will give you rounds within .001 +/-, were you getting inconsistent OALs before changing bullets?
Pistols are very forgiving as to OAL, but you never said what kind of rifle. Marlins in small calibers can be very finicky as to a rounds OAL, ‘66/‘73s are more forgiving. Remember Dillon has a lifetime guarantee even if you’re not the first owner plus they’ll also refurbish your machine (as Singin Sue mentioned), at a very reasonable cost. When I bought a used SDB I sent it to Dillon, I paid the shipping to them they took care of the rest including the cost of shipping it back. They sent the machine back looking like new and running like snot from a 2 year old’s nose. If you decide to send your machine in call or email them first, there might be a very long wait time.
Keep us posted, sometimes it’s hard to diagnose things without being there or seeing pictures.

I’m so glad to hear the news! Sorry to hear you spent your big 7 0 in the hospital, but thank God it was nothing serious. Looking forward to seeing you again and thanks for keeping Tennessee in the loop.

I got a call from the VA asking me if I’d like to get a COVID shot. They got me in within 3 days. Man was I surprised.

Widder I don’t know what’s scarier, you turning 70 or having to go to the hospital with chest pains. I truly hope it was a false alarm and just a little angina caused by thinking about your birthday. Stay well my friend.

And for you other swabbies out there:
Splice the main brace - when sailing ships had to repair the masts it was a hard dirty job. The men were often rewarded after the main brace was spliced with grog or rum. Today it means to go have an adult beverage.

For those that would like a visual. The ropes on the cannon were used to tie it off to the side of the hull so the recoil wouldn’t send it rolling across the deck.

Tequila Shooter, I see CircleFly Wads says they are too busy supplying their distributors right now to sell to individuals, and to contact one of their retailers. Have you tried all these?
Thanks Abilene, I just got a couple a 100, but I’m tired of hunting the websites every time I need some. So I thought if I make them myself I can have them anytime I need them. What brought this up was when I was getting ready for Dark Days in January I needed some and again I had to hunt and was only able to get 1 package in time.

Pards, I’m trying to get in touch with Lassiter. His mailbox isn’t taking messages and his phone gives a message about entering an access code. If anyone is in touch with him would you ask him to contact me.
Thanks

In these times we’re living I wouldn’t confront the kid(s) without the parents being there. Kids seem to spin things like a seasoned PR specialist. I’d wait till the parent(s) are there and explain. If you get resistance or denial then do the recording things that’ve been suggested.

You can get your hammers lowered or add low wide hammer spurs like the Old Army Bisleys that I made.
If you’re going to Ides I’d like to sit down with you and discuss this with you. My right thumb is still sore from last Saturday’s match.

Cap & Ball Race Guns?
Seems like there is an oxymoron in there somewhere! 
You can’t say oxymoron, moron is an offensive word. The PC police will be coming to your home and confiscating your computer and put you in a posting time out.

That’s just crazy. With the prices the way they are 1 round will cost $3+ each. I got enough for the year hopefully this will end sooner rather than later.
