loading small primer .45 cap brass
Quote from Reloader on May 10, 2013, 2:45 amI have a Dillon xl 650 setup for 9mm. I would like to load some .45acp small primer brass. My question is, do I need to make any adjustments to the primer seating for .45 or will it center with my 9mm setup? Thanks

I have one for small primers that loads .40 S&W and .38 / .357 without adjustment, and one set up for large primers that runs .45 ACP and .45 Colt without a hitch. If it were to go to a smaller case like 9mm, I'd probably just by another primer feed.....
