PPM Rotor Tension Adjustment
Posted: 05 Feb 2015 13:55
I posted this on another forum so I thought I would post it here as well.
I was setting up one of my Lee Perfect Powder measures and decided to demonstrate the rotor tension adjustment that I use. The instructions call for 16 ounce/inches which is a little light for powders like BL-C(2), H335 or many pistol powders.
I was dropping the 3.10 cc of BL-C(2) into a 300 Savage case placed against the drop tube so that any spill outside the case would be visible on the white paper. I personally use 26 ounce/inches after the lapping I perform as I drop into a Safety Scale pan which contains the little bit that makes it through. I do use a torque screwdriver to set the Rotor Tension Screw.
