    Star sizer punch too short?

    I got a new magma star sizer in the mail yesterday.

    When I size a bullet it doesn't come out of the die unless I size a second bullet on top of it.

    Is this normal behavior or is my punch too short?

    Thanks,
    Dan

    Yes, the way they are designed is the bullet stays in the die so it can get lubed and than come out when the next bullet takes its place.
