There is an upgrade kit that allows converting standard auto disk measures to Pro features, but it really just replaces the hopper and includes the swivel adaptor that one may already have. |

Heaven forbid you should get abbreviations and acronyms mixed up on a reloading forum. That could lead to a dangerously overpressured dangling participle!

It doesn't matter how long the PTE is, it's adjusted by moving the entire die up or down, watching the slide go all-the-way over the drop tube. If not using a powder measure on the expander die, the aluminum cap is left on the die. Then the die is adjusted until the powder disc aligns with the drop tube AFTER or AT THE SAME TIME the desired belling is achieved. It has nothing to do with the friction of the expander plug on the inside of the case.

Thanks, Snuffy, but I know what I experienced and how I fixed the problem. I have repeatedly said that it seems to be working fine now, and that is as long as I resize the case mouth between test powder drops or pick a fresh case. During routine loading all is well.
I have the die set all the way down to the shell holder. There is j-u-s-t enough flare to nicely accept a bullet, no real bell at all. That's fine, because I have an expander die to get the precision I want in the next station. Probably don't really need it. I seem to have (5) expander plugs for 44 SPL in my inventory for some reason, and they all measure 1.092 in length. BTW, my 44 Mag die, mounted on a separate turret with its own powder measure, is stamped "44 SPL C3". |
