I've been reloading for a few months now and have done a bunch of .308 and now am doing 7mm08. I am setting up my dies with the instructions (lawyer version).
I lube my brass and set it in the shell holder. On the upstroke I get the expected resistance expected when pushing the brass up into the die. However on the down stroke the brass starts coming out of the die and I then hit a wall of resistance where I have to push down hard on the lever and "pop" the brass out of the die.
This doesn't seem right to me. It's happening with both 308 and 7mm08. I've reset the dies multiple times and it always happens during resizing.
Is this normal? I'm completely self taught from you tube and reading here and other places. I just want to make sure I'm not doing something wrong.
Press is a Rock Chucker and dies are also RCBS. Using RCBS kine on a lube mat.
