Was going to work up some .357 tonight, when I ran into something that's giving an issue.
loading typical MBC .357 action bullet profile on my SDB. I've loaded it's 38 counterpart many times with zero issues, but this is the first time I've run .357 brass through it.
What I'm running into is that I have to have the seating stem backed so far out for proper seating depth, that it's nearly out of the toolhead. It's so completely loose, I can turn it by hand easily.
I bought the conversion kit off ebay - I'm starting to think there's perhaps supposed to be an additional spacer maybe to bring the toolhead height up higher?
I'm a little lost - there's no consistent way to load rounds as things stand now.
