Here is what our crimp looks like:


We have lowered the precrimp only to mess up the hulls by crushing one of the crimps, so we raised it back up and we have adjusted the top nut and bottom nut one turn each direction...this is the best we can come up with and neither of us are happy.
The PW instruction book that you pay $10 for sux at best
and doesn't help with this hardly at all. What do we need to adjust.
We have went to a shallower crimp only to still have the hole in the center and we have went deep enough that it caved in the center a bit but never have been able to get the pedals to touch.
PLEASE HELP, we're stumped. One thing worth mentioning is this is our first PW press and coming from a MEC sizemaster this thing is going to be freakin' awesome if we can figure this one issue out. We have everything else working.
Also, this load is as follows:
18.5-18.7 grains of Titewad
WAA12SL wad
1oz shot
Win 209 primer (that is seating well)
Tell us what to do and we will give it a try and post results. We have sporting clay league tomorrow so it will be a couple of days before we get back with results. Thanks!
