[QUOTE="jb1000br, post: 146424, member: 1459"] GG - I asked because I have a Harrell Press that I have used to FL and it didn't work out so well...SH cammed off the die...no bump. Inspected at top of stroke with no case in the SH = good solid cam over/contact. With a fired case in the SH, there was now a GAP btwn the SH and die! Why? There was not enough leverage etc. to bump the soulder and the system was flexing/giving etc. A very hard cam over (not simply good contact) was required, and that meant really stressing the short handle on the press. Have since relegated FL sizing to the rockchucker. With your Jr. press I'd expect a similar occurance, but the rockchucker should eliminate it. JB [/QUOTE]
