check your charge on a digital scale... you might see that your mechanical scale is off... I done the same thing that you did with my .40... I couldnt figure it out. I got a Hornady digital scale, and my charge was 1.5 grains too heavy on that mechanical scale.. I have been using that Lee mechanical scale for 10 years, I dropped it one day. It was still in good shape.. so i kept using it.. evidently it wasn't. I have been using a digital scale ever since and checking the calibration everytime I use it. I hope I helped with my bad experience.
Good idea. My Hornady digital scale says that my rounds are at or slightly below the weight I was targeting.
