Lee Auto Disk hits dies...WITH riser!

I already have a Lee Auto Disk riser attached to my .45 ACP dies and the philips head screw that holds on the lever arm hits the seating die and makes in really difficult to screw the riser into the flaring die.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a common thing? Any solutions...it's driving me nuts!

Looking at my setup, i dont see how this is really possible. Maybe if you are not using lee dies? Anyways, what about rotating the autodisk to the outside of the turret? It gets a little shake-up between cycles too. I actually make sure mine is facing outward, and i get more consistent powder drops, probably due to the more violent cycling.

What Phillips head screw? I can't figure out what you're talking about. I have three Pro Auto Disks, two with risers for quick switch on my Classic Turret Press and have zero problems.

Are you using some other dies than Lee? Non-Lee lockrings?

Sounds like he got the arm and chain that you use on pro1000 and loadmasters

Lee has a kit that cures the problem.
