Make sure you are not jamming the mouth up into the die. Back off a quarter tern and measure again. I also deburr and polish the collet fingers so it doesn't mark cases. The fingers fit together better after this. I also polish down some of the machining ribs or marks then some auto re assembly moly lube sparingly applied and the entire operation is much smoother. First time I tried one in 375 I was waiting for that partial "toggle over" feel and blew the cap right off my brand new die and jammed the case. Boy was I disappointed. Threw the die to the back of the bench and left it there for a couple of years. Will send back to Lee and I bet they send me a new one maybe with a PS " your an idiot" but probably not.

I really like them now I am over the dumbazz curve.
