    I have my die adjusted down far enough that my press touches it when it goes up. I don't think I can wind it anymore (the only adjustment on that die is the primer remover depth).

    I'll have another tinker tonight and put a few more pics up.
    presses generally flex a little when you have a piece of brass in there being sized so winding down more so that it bottoms out earlier can still be justified
