I was loading on my LNL AP today...I'm still new and very careful...and noticed that the powder measure wasn't always dropping a charge.
I know about the measure rotating itself loose in the bushing and check that regularly...it wasn't that.
What was happening was that the rotor insert would sometimes "stick" in the up position when it was pushed upward by the incoming case.
1. I checked the linkage and everything was tight
2. I disassembled the rotor/insert, cleaned it and sprayed it with Hornady One-Shot dry lube
3, I reassembled it and ran some powdered graphite through the measure.
It ran fine for a little bit and started sticking again.
Has anyone encountered this problem and what was your solution?
Thanks in advance
