Lyman 4500 problem

Post by Thursdaymike »

So I tried to size and lube some 30 cal. Bullets. Took a lot of force to push bullet down. Then it took a hammer to get it out.I asked on here about it and we came to the conclusion I was trying to size to far down.ok I didn't mess with it any more until yesterday. I have bullets that dropped .460-.461 trying to size to .459 they are still getting stuck. They have lube on them. I'm so frustrated with this thing I just want to throw it in the trash and pan lube. I will post video tonight if I can.

Now I'm really pissed. Why can it not work right. I see videos of guys using them no problem on YouTube. Mine breaks. Seriously I'm lifting up with one arm. I'm not that strong.

I had the same problem with trying to size some 400 grain bullets for a 40/65 Winchester that were cast 30/1 tin/lead, when I cast them straight wheel weights had no problem, I had to tap on the bottom of the Sizers with a hammer to get the sized bullet out of the size. die, changing lube didnt help.
