Can't get my small powder bar to drop more than 5 grains

[ElCalvoPR]

I have a Super 1050 and I need to start loading 9 major rounds.  When I turn the dial all the way the max amount of grains I am pulling is around 5 grains.  I have the small powder bar and use the Clickable Powder Thrower Adjustment Knob.

 

Is there anything I need to do to allow it drop a larger amount?   Dillon websites states that the small can drop up to 20 grains. 

 

Thanks!

Take it apart and watch to see if the bar's throw adjustment is going the full range. If it's stuck you won't get the max throw. Also make sure that the linkage is not loose.

Make sure there is nothing stuck in the powder drop and powder funnel..

Thanks.  I will check tonight.

Also check to make sure it's seated well and tight to the powder drop die. I had a quick release one and found out I had it too loose, which caused it to throw less powder.

Took care of the issue, now to chrono!

It would be cool if you shared the issue so others would know what to look for if they run into the same issue.
