    I'm using wc844 in my auto drum. It's the same as h335. It has always leaked. It's the only powder I've used in this dropper.

    I think I'm going to call Lee on Monday about the thing not resetting. I've loaded about 400 rounds today and had to manually turn the thing back half way almost every time. It's getting annoying. But I got 400 rounds loaded though on the p4k

    Also got in a new shell plate for the p1k to start running 38s on there when I'm done with the 223s.

    I'm down to my last box of .41 reloads so I was ecstatic to stumble onto a box of cast .41 220gr RNFP while I was going through stuff looking for something else. I have some SWC's on order but who knows when those will get here. Loaded up a box with a minimum load of Universal like I use with my usual 215 gr SWC. I think I'll go to the range tomorrow with the 657.

    I've had trouble with the auto-disk not resetting. I've come to the conclusion that counting on a spring to do the job is the problem. I've cleaned and buffed and tuned and polished and it still hung every once in a while.

    This is a problem. Welcome to squib city.

    I use them on a Dillon. I came up with a fix. I removed the spring and managed to rig the chain-return so now it it driven in both directions. The same way the Lee Load Master works. A failure to return would break the chain which would be very noticeable. Haven't had a problem since. I've never broken a chain which tells me it was just barely hanging up.

    Loaded up some .270 to send down range tomorrow. Large rifle primer supply getting lower than I would like, so I only loaded up 5 of each instead of the usual 10. I’ve got some Hornady 130 grain SST and some Hornady 130 grain SP Interlock, with a couple different loadings behind each.

    Spoke with the winning bidder of my Super 1050 about payment and shipping a few minutes ago.

    I sold the RL1050, along w/all of the Mark 7 automation, last week.

    All I have left, I think, are the 2 RF100s.

    Next Step: Order Mark 7 Apex, w/autodrive, and almost every sensor, bell and whistle, but most importantly, the Primer eXpress auto primer loading system...

    Quite the system

    I noticed the other day that they were cancelling every in stock notification. Id get an email every minute or so saying the 5k brick was no longer available.

    Yep, I got the same notifications. I’m down to less than 5,000 large pistol primers, and when I saw them in stock I almost ordered them, but with hazmat and shipping, it was over $100 for 1,000 primers. I know I need to get used to these higher prices, but it’s too much for me to stomach right now, paying that much for primers.

    I've got a couple hundred loaded up for when I do finally get a 10mm.

    Actually went and shot my Glock 20 today. It had been sitting in the safe since I took it with me hunting in January. I forget how fun that gun is to shoot with hand-loads. I always get comments and questions at the range when I pop off a few rounds.
