Some back round, I use the die in a Dillon 550. I got them used from a friend, they were lightly used and I cleaned them prior to use. I loaded about 1k rounds with 115 gr FMJ to coal 1.15". Of those I got about 20 randomly which were loaded short to a coal of 1.0" for some reason.
I changed to 45 and loaded 3k before I went back to do more 9mm. Now every cartridge came out short. It seems that the stem was getting stuck and did not want to move. I took apart the die, everything seems okay and cleaned it again. I played with it more and seems to be moving freely so I re-installed it. About half comes out short now. Any advice what I can or should do? It's my first competition seater, getting ready to go back to my old reliable standard seating die. Thanks in advance |
