As I'm loading for 223, I'm finding that the two knurled nuts that hold the powder hopper down loosen until I start to get charges that are too high. The nuts have actually fallen off. This happens gradually as I'm loading. It takes 30-40 rounds for them to loosen and by 60 or so, one of the nuts will fall off.
Note that rather than using the double disk set, I'm using two Adjustable Charge Bars stacked on top of each other (yes it's possible with some careful filing of the guide pins on the bottom of the top bar).
Any ideas on how I can keep them from falling off. Since I need to remove them on occastion, LockTite isn't the solution. Bugger up the threads of the screw slightly? A turn of teflon tape perhaps?
Thanks,
