What did you do in the reloading room today?

I actually have & use one. Big step up from the auto disc!

I read that six page thread on The High Road and saw you posting there. Looks like you're one, of the majority, having successful results.

Like I posted, some that have issues are able to resolve them with some minor tweaks, some just want to complain. I've seen threads on needed fixes for Dillon gear too. So while it's regarded as the Cadillac of reloading gear by most, it's not entirely without its faults as well.

If there's an inherent design flaw in a product that no amount of tweaking will fix, then it's time to send it down the road and get something else. I wasn't saying the Lee Autodrum was without merit, just pointing out what my initial findings were. If i was interested in one, I would put more time/effort into reviewing more info. To get my Lee Perfect Powder mearure to auto-drop, I did have to customize it a bit. If I didn't have it, I would certainly be looking hard at the Autodrum.

Just add a little space to the lower cavity, disks are cheap. This is with doing for a favorite load.

Loaded up a ladder of 300BO 208gr AMAX subs over aa1680.

Loaded the last of some shitty M80 pulled bullets over 43gr of IMR4895 in PPU brass. Nice M80 clone load I found works well. My Sig716P likes these. I need to either pick up some more 4895 or start to work up a 4064 and/or Varget blaster load now and find some more 150gr M80 pulls or cheap boolits.

Used the Lee Perfect Powder Measure and spot checked drops against the new scale. Pretty damn consistent within .1 or .2 gr at all times, always under if off at all. I've learned to "bump" the drop a little to get more consistency.

Depending on how hard or soft I cycle my Redding powder measure, I can make it drop .1 heavy or light. The key is consistent articulation of the handle.

Finished up 500 .223's.

45ACP - LRN and FMJ - just on tear for this one lately. Square Deal B makes it easy.

Also remember that most of the threads on the Internet forums are complaining/problems. Not a lot of people posting "hey it works great"!

There are mods that can be done to the discs to increase or decrease hole size.

I WANTED to load a few hundred .45ACP plinkers today but had a couple home repairs to do and then the wife drug me out to some friend's house for a quick visit so she could learn some artsy fartsy crafty thing she needed help with.
