If you are going from large to small primers I think you there are some other changes to be made. I currently have my press set up for 38 special/357. I bought the shell plate carrier for 45ACP, but I have not tried to change calibers yet. My old Lee dies won't work with the 1000 set up. As I recall I need the powder through die to mount the powder measure on. Still doing 45 on my Challenger Press. I think your right about the tool head. A friend that loads several calibers has setups for each caliber.
