[QUOTE="243yote, post: 330322, member: 16909"] It was not with the reloader but with the brass! Remington brass for some reason is not uniform. I reloaded with once fired remington brass and had the same problem bolt hard to close. I looked more closely and found the remington brass was not cut evenly. If you put the brass in a drill with your LEE brass catridge holder and give it a whirl you will noticed that it wobbles! Not good. Throw the brass and get some Winchester brass they are more uniform. I have since threw out all my remington brass. I checked the other once fired remington brass and more than 90% had the wobble. So check your brass and make sure they are straight. Hope this helps.:) [/QUOTE]
