[QUOTE="Winchester 69, post: 267231, member: 8037"] I'm flattered. Since I appear to be on a roll, I'll risk it all and mention a caveat regarding over-camming. Once the shellholder and die are in solid contact, no additional force applied will accomplish anything. The die won't compress, the press is flexing, and the whole process is being tortured. The same does not apply for seating and sizing when there is not lockup. Going over-center then will assure that all slack is removed from the links and consistency is achieved. Saw a picture a couple of years ago of a Lyman press in three pieces. Am I reading correctly that you solved your situation with case lube? . [/QUOTE]
