[QUOTE="Trental, post: 601764, member: 33874"] The shell holder "touching" the die isn't far enough. You need to screw the die in until it touches and then another 1/4 turn or so. You are looking for what is called "cam-ing over". You will feel this in the press handle. You will feel it contact the die and then you keep pushing and the press will cam over. You will develop a feel for this with more experience. It may seem like that last little bit of movement isn't doing much, but in reality if you have a tight chamber in your firearm then that last little bit makes a huge difference. Just touching isn't enough. [/QUOTE]
