How much clearance between the turning mandrel and the case neck?

If he has .014 to .014.5 between the case and the mandrell this is a problem. It should be less than .001

Schnyd, What did you change from bottom to top in post 18?

Speed of the drill. That was about it, just went more rpms which made it easier to keep consistent. The far right was also the first I did that night.
