Today I set up a new drum in my auto drum powder dispenser on my Lee turret press. Using H110 for 50 AE. For some reason the dispenser kept getting stuck on the dispense stroke. A light tap with a mallet caused it to return forcefully, sending the adjusting key flying across the room ( already lost one ) After a few sticks I emptied the dispenser, removed the drum, but there was nothing binding the drum to the body. I could remove it easily. After completely emptying the dispenser and raising the powder die a bit it returned to service but still sticks occasionally.
1. Is is possible the powder is getting stuck in the drive gears jamming them up?
2. SInce this is a very fine ball powder, there is a bit of leakage Is there a fix for that or something I just have to live with?
