"RANGE REPORT FOR FIRST TIME LOADING PG.3" I just got done loading my first batch of ammo from my new Lee turret reload kit, and had one question I was loading .223 and noticed that after using the full length die filled with powder. I have to hold the bullet till I pull down on the handle, because the bullet does not sit on the case by its self. Should the case be open a little to allow the bullet to sit on there so you dont have hold it on there, reason I ask is that it just seems like the bullet would go in alot easier if the case was expanded just a pinch at the mouth so the bullet got started a bit easier. This may be a completely newb( well it is a newb question since I just started reloading so bare with me) question, but just want to make sure Im doing everything correct for my range trip tomarrow to test them out and see how I did.
