Suggestion.... don't let the powder level drop much below half full. There's no baffle in the Lee Pro measure to compensate for powder weight. Also, make sure the powder measure isn't spinning loose on the drop tube. This can effect whether or not you're getting a full extension into the drop tube. |

Well I went to the range today and shot the rest of the batch. No issues. Everything shot smoothly and accurately. No underpowered loads no overpowered loads. Not really sure what that means other than I’m guessing I just didn’t have enough powder in the hopper and one of the powder drops bridged and did not drop a full load in one round.

No/low powder charge is the #1 cause. Why I like powder checks along with eyeing every case, when I can. A good powder check can detect differences too small for the eye to see as well.
