This is on a 2023 Lee Pro 1000 progressive press. The correct initial setup for the expanding die is to adjust it down to shell plate and back off 1/2 turn or so. This will be a good starting point for expanding the case. The instructions for adding the auto drum power measure is to remove the funnel adapter and screw in the powder measure and tighten the knurled nuts together. Instructions state that the dispense position indicator should not make contact with the top of the slider. I find this is impossible! For the correct case expansion, the indicator is in contact with the top of slot. If I unscrew (raise) the die so that the dispense indicator is at the proper position, there is no case flare. I can unscrew the knurled nuts and get what looks correct but the powder measure is lose on top of the die and flopping around. What am I doing wrong?
