[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 463587, member: 9215"] Fire, I'm not fond of ANY "quick-change" die bushings but wonder if you rally have a problem. Unsure of what you mean about the need to tighten the dies after every two-three uses but if you mean the die in the bushing you can fix that with a wrench. If the fact that your dies lift a tad during use is bothering you, forget it. They will ONLY lift until they hit a hard stop and that will occur with only modest pressure. And if such die lift bothers you now, DON'T get a CoAx, it works exactly that way! The only way to really learn if you have problem is to check your ammo. Do you have a gage such as the RCBS Precision Case Mic or Hornady's bullet and shoulder devices to clamp on the jaws of a precision caliper? AND a concentricity gage like Sinclair's to confirm your bullet runout is low? Fact is, the press is likely the least important tool we use for making good ammo, anyone with decent skills and understanding of the process can make excellant reloads on any press. [/QUOTE]
