Dacaur, the following photos show the results of using my .270 Win FCD exactly per the instructions:
Screw in until contact is made with shell holder. Turn 1/2 turn more.
I went no further, even though Lee suggests a more "firm" crimp can be achieved by doing so.
Wow. I have 4 FCD's (.308, 30/30, 9mm, and .380auto) and none do anything close to that regardless of how I have it adjusted, and at the "starting point" mine still has a definite gap.... I wonder if certain calibers just get smaller (too small) collets for whatever reason, that would certainly explain why some people claim it so horribly swags bullets, something I have never seen....
