OK, I now have question 2. I wasn't sure whether to post here or start a new thread, but...
As the case with powder moves around it jumps and spills powder as the shell plate goes into the detent holes. I googled and found two solutions. One guy beveled the entrance to the detent holes. Since I'm not good with a Dremel I don't want to try that. Another solution was to put shims under the sub plate. I wasn't real clear about what that did. I'm thinking it lessens the space between the sub plate and shell plate and that somehow makes the drop of the balls less violent. Is that right?
Also, since I don't yet want to tear apart my press after getting it all set up, how hard is it to get the sub plate off. How do you do that?
Lastly, have any of you done that and did it help?
