Lyman M Die users Question
Got a Lyman M Die and think it does a awesome job of expanding my brass. The only downside is the expander button seems to loosen and change settings through the course of several hundred pieces of brass. Wondering am I just not putting a enough juice when I tighten it or maybe I need to get the blue loctite after it. It's not something I really want to take pliers after to try to fix even with a piece of leather protecting the button from the pliers. Am I missing something here?

I've never had any problem with mine. Is it pulling loose? Was it lubed with some super slippery wonder lube?

Lyman M Die
My 1970 ventage Lyman M Die came that way.
The "M" Die works a lot better than RCBS neck expander dies. |

None of my M dies have done that to my recollection.
