    I have to either press my pucks out of the die, as well. Or, use a dead blow hammer on the piston, which seems to be quicker. I don't have blow-by, but as Ham said, the side pressure is just very high and makes for tight fit.

    What sort of protection is everyone using during the tumbling process? None of my neighbors are close, but to protect my house and theirs, I plan to tumble inside a U shaped sandbag wall, open end facing the woods, and tall enough to have no line of sight to any building.

    Somebody;
    That sounds to me like you should be good to go. If you make sure your media is non sparking and your powder has no contaminates that can cause sparking and if you mill small quantities, it should not be a problem. Your 'bunker' should work fine. Good luck!
