I sometimes put a small washer under the shell to bring up the height. Sometimes I put the washer on top of the crimp to sink the crimp a little too. The load all is a great machine, but there are some tricks to it.
Great demonstration, and like nitehawk85 said, reminded me of reloading with my dad many years ago. Question: is the primer spring and plastic piece the same in your 16 Lee Load All Original as in your other Lee Load All Original? I seem to have lost my 16 spring and piston piece. My 20 pieces do not fit (too long for the base). I cannot find parts online either. Any thoughts? Thanks much. Paul
I just dug out my 3 load all's and the plastic/spring priming base fit in all 3 gauges. You dont really need the base anyway, I just push the primer in the hull and sit in the hole if the base is missing.
Sorry I know it’s many years past since you posted this video but have you ever loaded steel shot? I picked up a model 12 in 16 but I live in California so I’m required to shoot steel and it ain’t easy to come by. Just curious if you knew the difference between loading lead and steel.
