I too have bought a Lee mould that new out of the box would not close completely. The pin was not installed correctly and Lee replaced promptly.

All of my Lee moulds cast slightly oversize. This is intentional as the bullets are to be sized before they are seated in the cartridge. I think everyone who casts bullets will either get the mould to hot or too cool when they begin to cast. One thing great about AL is it cools or heats quickly to the correct temp. I quit using steel moulds altogether many years ago and switched to AL
