Here's an update - I loaded 100 rounds of 9mm and 100 rounds of .40 S&W. It was a painful experience and took about 2.5 hours. The problem is the indexing will not stay adjusted. Get it set just right and about 5 or 6 strokes later it's out of adjustment again. That leads to all kind of other problems like missed primers and crushing a case trying to get into the sizing die. It also means I have to stop and unload the shell holder and try adjusting the pawl again. All in all it's a very frustrating operation.

I'm getting to call Hornady again and see if they have a fix.
