I purchase a used Lee loader in 223, the kit was complete except for the decapping pin.
On attempting to load with it I discovered it was buckling the shoulder of the case.
The reason for this seems to be that the neck sizing section is threaded into the die body and has come loose and turned in about 1/3 of a turn.
I called lee and they do not supply the die body as a separate part - everything esle though. They suggested I buy a new set.
The cost to return it to Lee from Canada is about 1/2 the cost of a new set.
Canadian distributors don't seem to have this set in stock either.
Is there a way to repair this? I thought Locktite™ Red might be a solution.
Or should i simply get another lock nut to lock the thread to the die body?
