Just got on older Rock Chucker from my brother. When the handle is pushed down it reached the top just before the handle is at the bottom. It then lowers just a little.
I have Lee Precision Dies (4 dies). I installed the dies per Lee's instructions.
When you raise the ram to the top it hit the dies then it take a lot of effort to completely lower the handle to the bottom. It take almost as much effort to lower the ram. I understand that this is called CAM OVER.
I noticed that the sized brass had a small line at the widest part of the shoulder. You could feel it with your finger nail. I was not sure that was correct. So I stopped.
Is cam over needed or can you adjust the dies to not have cam over and still do the sizing correct.
I decided to size all the brass because I mixed a batch from another 308 rifle.
I did order a length/head space gauge. that will be here tomorrow.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
