i have my LLA taken apart for cleaning and i was wondering if anyone know any way to stop it from leaking powder? it leaks from the top of the charge bar and fall out from each side. i think at a gunshow last year i heard a guy say somthing that rubing a wax candle on the top of the charge bar will help it slide easier and also stop the powder from sliping inbetween the slot, has anyone ever tried that or anything else that works?
 
Mine drops a little bit here and there. Its never bothered me. Try tightening the 2 front screws that hold the charge bar. Be careful they might strip the plastic
 
Mine does the same thing! I switched to measuring each load by hand. Not only does that take the fun out of it, but I load slugs, which means my "load-all" is merely a "crimp-only".

I haven't discovered a fix either :(
 
Which powder measure?
auto-disk,
pro auto-disk,
perfect powder measure.
Anything to do with powder system lubing I use dry graphite. That way nothing gets sticky.
A solidly mounted press stops some of the vibration that spills powder when the disk comes out. Is the o-ring in good shape?
 
ya the lee load all 2 always leaks powder, there isnt a way to fix it, i just got a different way to measure powder with either dippers and a scale or a powder throw and a scale.
 
I use Winchester Super Field and Winchester Super Lite in my Lee Loadall II. It leaks some powder as the charge bar is operated, but it's not a big deal. The design doesn't seem to be really "tight", but it's ok value for the money.
