Failure to prime

#1 · July 10, 2011, 10:45 pm

My 1050 is not priming every 25 rounds or so.

I am loading 223 with WC 844 powder and CCI primers

I have disassembled cleaned and lubed the moving parts and while it is smoother it is still missing primers. I also changed the plastic adapter at the end of the primer tube.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Called Dillon Problem Solved.

I had left the Half Moon Stop off when I installed the primer slide.

As I recall from the last time I called support not only was the called answered by a knowledgeable person he was polite and patient.

That is the reason all my reloading equipment is blue. . .

Thanks
Dillon

So What is the part you needed? I have a brand new Super 1050 doing the same thing.

Clean your primer tube like you would a rifle bore except use alcohol. Also make sure the primer slide lines up perfectly with the primer magazine tube. You may have to shim the half mood stop to get the mag tube aligned with the slide. The plastic tips aren't always perfectly aligned with the slide.
