[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 403265, member: 9215"] "..I extend the ram rod all the way up until it connects with the die, this will take the slack out of the threads and you can visually see it true up the die..." Well, I'm sure you can see the die move under pressure. If it's more "true" than simply tightening the lock ring hand tight is another question. The die-to-ram alignment depends on how well the press threads are actually in line with the ram hole, and that depends on a bit of luck because few such threads are cut all that precisely. [/QUOTE]
