as a new reloader I might be more sensitive to new information; I really like your production and look forward to many more especially 9mm, 38/357 and 45 acp since that's what I reload using a Lee 4000, but all content appreciated! Some more in depth videos dealing with troubleshooting, potential problems, determining best powder load,etc.
You can use a washer inside the LFCD and use the micrometer bullet seat stem. I emailed LEE and suggested this when I tested the pre release stem and they were already aware of it. I don't use it though because I 3D printed a collar that seats on the die body and another that seats on the stem with a pointer and it has thousandths and half thousandths adjustment using the standard old o ring friction stem. I also made a solid steel stem (from an old pacific 44 spcl decap/expand rod) that is moveable to any FCD or universal expander to use with my floating NOE (M) copies for the LEE universal expander bodies. Just one more thing I've always loved about reloading...the possibilities are endless in what you can do to make something better or at least more useful.
Good series, Jesse. I employ the exact same method to leave a “witness mark” on the tops of my seat and crimp dies to make it easier to adjust the setting. Been doing that for years. It’s a little tougher to do on steel dies as opposed to the softer Lee aluminum does, but it can be done. With a steel die, you can cut a small groove on the edge with a file, and fill that with white paint or nail polish. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Great series. Learned quite a bit and feel more comfortable now trying my first rounds to reload. Also have a much better idea now on the exact equipment I need to begin. I would love to see another series on a different caliber. If you want to do that from start to finish. Excellent series on the 44 special.
I also will invert the cases to show which ones have been processed, I get interrupted despite trying to not to, I've found another easy way to keep track is to have an empty space in the loading block at the start that gets filled with the processed case and repeat so the empty space separates the batch.
I agree about needing to plunk test new bullet 'dummie rounds' and first of a production batch but I still use the lee ammo check on ALL rounds I make, sometimes I catch a split case that I missed when prepping(the round doesn't fit the case check then) or a bulged case that needs extra pass in the Lee factory crimp die to re size it(or even several passes with slight rotation), also I check the primer depth then(rarely that's when I find a round that didn't get a primer at all-what a mess!)

I think I got the punch thing from you 🤣

I think I might do another series and make it two parts per video. That would make 3 videos in the series.
