    Loadmaster shellplate too small

    Have a Loadmaster, just getting into reloading .45 and have been reloading other calibers for a while. Got my shellplate 2L for it, and a couple of the stations are ever so slightly undersized for .45 ACP. So now im spending my morning killing buffing wheels for the dremel trying to get this damn thing to work. Allready tried a file to open them up, the file quickly met its demise. I have no idea what Lee made these shellplates out of, but they are FAWKING HARD!

        meh, woulda but i really wanted to load, haha. Got it fixed now, works great. For some reason I have found that every 500 rounds or so, i find one .45 that the head is just slightly too big on and it will bind. Usually winchester brand. interesting.

          That is odd. Ive never had an issue like that on my Lee. You sure its not just the case rim is bent funky from reuse?
