Suspense

Eric, yes, and I even got to open it a week early so we could check for any "shipping damage". Not sure how you would hurt that press, though. Got the classic cast turret and two extra turrets, have the 303 and the 45-70 set up.

I had looked at the clasic cast and getting hornady lock and load set ups for all the dies, but that ran into more money than the cast turret. Very slick with the 303, run it up into the neck sizer, add primer, lower to insert primer. Raise again on empty hole in turret, place funnel and add powder ( need to get a lee powder die for this) lower, add bullet and raise into the bullet seating die,  lower and raise up into the lee factory crimp die  and remove finished bullet.

I'm a little fussy about measuring the powder, so this slows it up from a true progessive loading pattern. The Lee disk is supposed to  be very accurate  and I think the double disk set up will throw enough powder for my R-15 303 loads, so I want to add that and try it.

I also like to de-prime and clean the brass first, so I may grind the primer punch of the factory collet die so I can clean and prime off the press, and then just run them through. It's faster, and produced some very accurate ammo.

Tony, my Lee perfect powder measure is inconsistent, and I measure every load.
I was talking about the Lee auto-disk. Joe at Real Guns has tested several powder drops and found them all wanting, regardless of price. He recently tested the Lee cast turret with the  auto disk and claims it gives more consistent measurement  than anything else he's tried.

I want to try one, but I'm not in that much of a hurry, if it's not consistent I'll continue to drop a short load and use the dribbler to bring it up to the correct charge.

Tony, several of the older powder drops (Lyman 55, Redding) have little hammers on the side just for that purpose. Raise the handle, flip the hammer and drop the load.
I have a 35+ yr old Redding that is very accurate with short extruded or ball powder, not real good with flake. Unique powder is notorious for not measuring properly.
