[QUOTE="catamountsierra, post: 1552907, member: 79865"] Upgrade the lock rings. I went to the Hornady ones, but then noticed that the Lee press was actually flexing under load. Now I am using an RCBS Rockchucker Supreme and have no trouble with any of my dies, Lee or other brands. Switching out the lock rings cut the slop in half, and then going to the stronger press got rid of virtually all of the rest. The dies are decent, and I especially like the collet neck sizing die and the factory crimp die, but the lock rings with the rubber o-rings are useless. If you don't want to buy new lock rings, maybe try doubling them up and locking them down that way, but I even put the Hornady rings on my Redding dies. [/QUOTE]
