[QUOTE="Winchester 69, post: 296470, member: 8037"] 25 lbs of force on the handle of one press does not create the same ram force as 25 lbs of force on another press' handle. Take note of the location of the handle when the shell holder contacts the die. Pressure on the ram is continuously variable. You have to find something that works and stay with it. Threading the die in further changes the location of the handle when the die bottoms out, reducing the pressure exerted by the ram. Another way is to simply exert less force on the handle. How about a combination? [/QUOTE]
