Well, truth be told I'm not at all angry. I sized a few hundred .223 rem cases and primed them. I figured after I did that I really should check them with a case gage, so I did. As it turned out they were mostly a bit long in the headspace arena. So I ran them through the full length sizer again but without the decapping pin.
I did clear up some of the troubled cases, but only about half.
I am figuring this is due to the slop that seems inherent in the turrets themselves. I was concerned about this for a while, and now it seems my concerns have been founded.
Anyway, I sprung for a classic cast single stage. The auto advance gave up the ghost a while ago for me and I was manual advancing the turret anyway. I'm a bit dissapointed in it, however it has served me well for several thousand handgun rounds.
The classic turret is a fine press for handgun ammo, but I can't say I like it for rifle. Of course then again I could be wrong. Has anyone else had problems such as this?
Also I did want to ask a question, are the mounting holes for the Classic Cast the same spacing as the classic turret? It would be great if i didn't have to drill out new holes.
