[QUOTE="Broz, post: 890967, member: 7503"] Here ya go Rooster. It sounds like you are missing the spring and ball as shown here in these two pics. [IMG]http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg91/JBroz1/2012-09-230012012-09-23001_zpsad77ba95.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg91/JBroz1/2012-09-230012012-09-23003_zps3244daa4.jpg[/IMG] When I state I am making truer and more consistent ammo than ever before I feel it is due to the combination. I used a RCBS press for decades and also RCBS dies. The difference here is in the competition dies with retractable sleeves to keep the case true to the die, the ability and method of use to set them up to zero clearance, a slight cam-over to assure zero variance in depth settings, and the option of leaving the dies set up in the turret so the next time you use them they will indeed be set up at the exact same depth and alignment because you did not remove them and they are still locked in and trued from the last time you set them up. DISCLAIMER: If you are an idiot, gorilla, or have no common sense you could if you try hard enough set the cam over up to tight and probably damage things from brute force or standing on the ram handle or adding a cheater pipe extension. However these dies and the T-7 press are designed to be set up to a zero tolerance and a slight cam-over. This process brings the turret to rest on the true machined pad in the rear and all things come into a true alignment with the ram.
