Hey Folks,
I have been loading for a few weeks now and having some trouble with consistant COL.
Loading 40S&W on Hornady LNL AP with Lee 4 die carbide set.
I have been loading one at a time until I become confident adding more shells and keeping an eye on everything.
Loading one case through all the stations I get a consistant COL 1.123 to 1.127 which seems to be acceptable, but when I add more shells to the plate the COL is jumping up to 1.130+.
I don't feel that I am getting too much resistance with all 5 stations filled to affect seating.
Should I back off the sizing die a touch and see if that helps?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
