Since there are no silly questions, here we go:
The manual says to use 5/16" bolts to secure the press to the bench. I happen to have some 1/2" bolts lying around, and they fit the holes in the press almost perfectly. The 5/16" have lots of wiggle room.
Is there any reason why Hornady would specify using a 5/16"? I would think that the bigger bolts would make for a more secure mount? I used 1/2" to mount my single stage Hornady Classic. The powder measure stand uses a 5/16". Did they mix up when the wrote the manual?
Is there any logical reason why you wouldn't use the largest bolt that goes through the mounting hole?
Thanks!
