I am having a problem with Lee 40s&w/10mm dies. I am trying to load 10mm. I am using the Lee Classic Turret press. I have the dies set up as it describes in the instructions, but this seems to be mainly directions for 40s&w.
When I attempt to run the cartridge case into the powder through expander die, the cartridge only seems to go in about as much as I would expect a 40 s&w cartridge to go. The case stops moving in the die before the lever is pulled all the way down. If i continue to pull the lever, I end up crushing the case about .15 of an inch.
Since the lever is not being pulled fully, the Lee Pro Auto Disk is not being fully activated, so the amount of powder being dropped is too low. I was trying to get 6 grains of Unique, but am only getting a little over 5g.
I hope this makes sense. I can't see how to adjust this to correct the problem. Any help is appreciated.
