LEE AUTO DRUM

Post by DocAdy »

Hello Everyone,
Im new on here and new to the Lee family and new to reloading. I recently bought 2nd hand a lee Pro 1000 it came with a bullet feeder, a case feeder with collator, an auto disc measure and a LEE AUTO DRUM MEASURE.
I have used the auto disc measure and it is great. I have just (after loading 200 rounds (38super) decieded to start to set up and use the LEE AUTO DRUM MEASURE on my LEE PRO 1000. OMG is it really this bad?

I have it set up as per the instructions with the manual press button, it turns the drum some way BUT I HAVE TO TURN IT THE REST OF THE WAY TO GET MY DESIRED CHARGE!!!!!
Go easy om me. Point me in the right direction please. It shouldnt be this manual.
Cheers.

The installed height and the drum cavity both have to be adjusted properly. It will work as designed then.
