I have an old mec super 250 that i got off ebay and not sure if its all there . I really just wanted something to give better crimps than my lee. The lee does ok but it doesn't give a taper at the crimp end of shell and they dont always feed properly. When trying to crimp with the mec it will pre crimp them fine but will crush the shell before it does the final crimp. Now if i precrimp on mec crimp on the lee and then give it a little pressure on mec they look perfect. But don't want to have to go back and forth.
Should the starting or final crimp have a spring or something? Or is there something i am missing to keep it from crushing the shell?
