    I wonder whether it may have been fucked from new, not a lot of clearance to allow anything between the shaft and the bore.

    Yep it will happen, hopefully before the end of the year. A few other things need to be paid for first.

    Dillons break too. Admittedly not on straight wall cases.

    BTW I just cracked an RCBS trim die in my Redding BB11 didnt think you could do that!

    Here I was thinking my rcbs was built like a tank. How did you manage to crack 12kg of cast iron using your hands????

    Got a T7 press and broke the shell holder spring clip when I had to remove the ram to get a projectile out. Really rate the press.

    That's another thing with the press. I got a shell holder for my .404 Jeffery, it wouldn't fit in the press so I took the spring clip out, but it isn't Spring steel so it has bent out of shape and won't hold the shell holder in anymore.

    Why bother fucking with it at all? Send it back under warranty.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
