Cases not being pushed
Quote from Reloader on August 5, 2017, 1:38 pmGetting a sporadic problem of cases not being pushed far enough into station one for depriming. Some go fine, others stop a bit short and have to be nudged over.

I had that happen with a new XL650, after a couple thousand rounds. I suspect that although the screw was plenty tight. My pressure when priming, was ever so slowly pushing it back over time. Or the vibration from moving parts. It just needed to be tighter. Something to check from time to time.

Press on the plate at station 4 and if there is any up/down movement then tighten the center bolt. I tighten the center bolt until I feel a drag trying to rotate the plate by hand and then back off just ever so slightly.
