Harrells FL die w/ bushing question

[gemmellsc]

I'm trying to set up my Harrells FL die using a Forster bushing. The bushing has a little bit of side to side play when dropped in the top of the die. If I tighten the top side of the die all the way down on the bushing do I need to be concerned about it being off center, or is there enough top to bottom play in the die to allow the bushing to self center?

Tks,
Bill

You really don't want the bushing to not float inside the die......
Tighten it down tight and try to rattle it, if you don't hear it rattling
it's not moving ......... it needs to be.....

Thanks Preacher. I just got off the phone with Harrell's, and he confirmed that their should be about .005" play top to bottom. I'll check it when I get home tonight.

Tks,
Bill
