Hello I reloading 230gn lead 45acp. I just changed powder from accurate #2 to #5 that is all I can find right now. I'm using lee disk 4.9 and it drops 7.4 to 7.5 gns of powder. The start load is 7.7...
I have tried different things, Keeping it clean and a little oil, clean without oil, I tried sanding any burs off the ram and the primmer holder but it still sticks a lot.
I have the Deluxe Turret Press Kit from lee. The primmer feed wants to hangs up in the shell plate holder and than fall out on the floor. I tried to clean it and lube it but doesn't help much. Anyone...
I really didn't think there would be much difference in the two.
Thanks
Question on powder. I'm using accurate #2 for my 45ACP 230 gr. lead. Would like to use the same for the 40 ACP 180 gr. lead.
My lee loading chart doesn't give me a choice to use Accurate#2 with...
In the email I got from them they didn't ask me to send it back.
I got a hold of Lee and they wanted the dimensions of the expander that was in the die. I sent it to them and they told me it was the wrong one. and there going to send me the right one. Glad to find...
Not sure if the case is going all the way into the expander. It doesn't seem like it is. I sent Lee a email yesterday explaining my problem, waiting to see what they have to say.
Well I made up 25 RD. and took them to the range, everyone fired and ejected great. But I'm still having some problems with the expander die.I can't get the neck expanded enough. Not all but some of...
Ok I am real close now. Bullet fits in the barrel like a factory bullet does. the only problem is with my Lee Expanding die, I have it screwed down all the way but its still a tight fit for the...
Thanks for your help. I'm going up north for a couple days so I will mess with it some more when I get back. Hope I don't have to bug you any more. I do appreciate your advice.
I do have the Lee Factory Crimp die. I adjusted it a little more I'm at 0.469 at the neck and about 0.470 in the middle. The length is 1.266 Max for this is 1.275 It still doesn't want to feed all...
I have a XD 45 ACP
Just started reloading, I went to get 45 acp 230gr 451. But all they had was the 452. I didn't think they would work, thinking there for the Colt 45. But the guy at the counter...
Do I need to spend a lot of money on a digital scale? Or will one of those small pocket scales be OK. I'm just going to be reloading 45 ACP. Any suggestions on a scale?
Thanks

I want to thank everyone here for your advice. I'm still not sure witch press I will get yet, But you have giving me a lot to think about. I think I will take the class first and than decide.
Thank you guys for that advice. I have watched a couple different videos on reloading so when I take the class I won't be completely lost. Now I think I will wait to get a press until after I take...
I'm taking a reloading class this fall . I would like to get your opinion on what press to buy. I will only be doing Handgun reloads, No rifle.
The Lee loadmaster is around 200.00 $ And the RCBS...
