I just got my new 650 and i am having a problem with the primmers missing as i load.  I have had a 550 for about 20 years and not had this problem wiht the 550. 

anyone wiht a suggestion on what the issue is and how to fix it?

 

Thanks

 

I need more info. If you just cycle the handle, no brass on the machine, does the primer disc rotate? Are there primers in the disc? You still push the handle forward to seat the primer, same as the 550B. What caliber?

the primer tube is full

223 is the caliber

"most (5 of 6) rounds are getting primers"  I have not played with it muctch, just loaded about 50 rounds.  It maybe me, the 650 works so much easier than my old 550 that i maynot be completely moving the handle all the way down and all the way back up.  I plan on working on it again this comming Saturday, I will update this blog after than.

i am checking this forum so feel free to post here or send me an email.

thanks

Dave

Dave, sorry, just saw this, and I hope you have found a solution to your problem by now, but I had a similar issue, and a .45 piece of brass on top of the plastic follower rod did the trick for me. The extra weight on the rod was what was needed, and a .45 brass fit perfectly.
