Inconsistent Powder Charges troubleshooting
- On large charges, you may not be allowing enough time for the drum to empty. Pause at the top of the press stroke. Allow about 1 second for every 10 grains of powder.
- The powder measure hasn’t been conditioned adequately. Run a hopper full of powder through the measure to coat surfaces with powder or dust the metering surfaces with powdered graphite.
- Check powder through expanding plug, drop tube and Powder Measure riser for oil residue. Push a clean tissue through to remove any residual oil.
- Adjust the tension screw on the drum 1/2 turn or more.
