I've been reloading for 30 years, and just bought my first progressive, an XL650 on Friday. Got it set up Friday night and after a few hundred rounds of smooth .45 loading, I put in another bag of .45 once fired I had bought at the local gun show. I had no idea that they made small primer in .45 - almost 1/2 of this brass was small primer. The first one, I tried to force it and had the large primer blow. First time I've had a primer go off in 30 years. Scared the crap out of me as the press was littered with granules of titegroup. Took me a little while to figure out what the problem was. I'm certainly going to ask from now on and make sure I only buy large primer brass.

How do the CMC's compare to Jewell's AR trigger? I replaced my rock river 2 stage with a Jewell and couldn't be happier, but curious about what else is out there for my next AR build.

A few times I've given a new pistol or rifle to a buddy and then had him show up at the door when she was home and "return the gun he borrowed from me". She couldn't tell the difference between a 12 gauge and a .22 so it seems to work well.

If that doesn't make a difference, see if your smith can make the trigger on the less accurate gun just like the trigger on the more accurate one.

I've been using the Lee for about 10 years - run it for days at a time sometimes and I'm amazed at how the motor keeps up. I've had to patch a seam or two that started to come apart in the basket, but it's still going strong.
