I polished the inside of mine with #0000 steel wool. It stopped leaking, and functions much more smoothly. I found your video just minutes after uploading mine. Between the two methods, people should be able to sort out their leakage issues.
The LEE Die Lock ring rubber washer placed inside the Auto Drum body fix the leakage problem for me. My Auto Drum came well polished from the factory and it was still leaking CFE223 and A1680. The rubber washer took care of the problem. Its Magic! :)
I knew I wouldn't be the only one experiencing this issue. Recently purchased the new Lee 6000 pro progressive press and the kit comes with this same relatively new powder drum (I had the old drum with auto disk kit). Been reloading 9mm and the Accurate #5 powder has been leaking out pretty bad. I'll give this a try. Thanks!
I hope this helps. I also noticed that if moisture gets into the powder, it can gum up the wiper inside and damage it. A wiper is a cheap part to replace if you need to.
dude you need to enunciate your words, it's next to impossible to understand you, you sound like the teacher from the Charlie Brown movies, wah wah wah
