Hornady LNL primer question

I finally got my LNL set up today and loaded my first batch of .40 S&W (165 gr bullet, 6.6 gr Autocomp).

Overall the press works as advertised, not to difficult to set up and easy to use. I shot 50 rounds just to make sure and they all fired perfectly.

The only issue I'm having is primers not seating every time. I loaded 100 rounds and had about 10 that didn't get the primer. I know the first couple were operator error (not pushing the handle forward to seat the primer) but as I continued I noticed that the shell plate didn't line up exactly every time when seating the primer. Is this a timing issue or am I doing something wrong? I was going to call Hornady support but thought I'd ask the experts here first.
