RE: dies and the lee handloader
 
I've never had any problem with the decaping stem moving, were you using it on crimped military primers?
No,it wasn't the depriming causing the rod to slip,as the rod also expands the neck after the die compresses it.It was on the upstroke that the rod came loose.

bigcountry, iffin you knew as much about them Lee dies as you think you do then you would know that the factory crimp die will form a grove anywhere on a bullet and crimp it at the same time!
I use oneon my 45-70 with Remington 405 gr jacketed bullets so I can crimp them for the proper length for my 1895 Marlin, and they work as advirtised.
If them bullets will hold their position in the case under that kind of recoil and with 405 gr bullets, they sure aint gonna move in a 270!
James B , I think he is just pickin on you;)
Oh I got one, but its a unnessasary waste of time. And for a new reloader, another thing to complicate matters.

But you are right on target with the remington bullet. I actually do the exact same, as I don't like the traditional technique for loading compressed loads with them as they do not have a cannalure. But I don't think this guy is looking for what you and I are for the 405gr.
