Machine improvement
Quote from Acp38super13 on October 7, 2024, 3:50 pmI was setting up a new die set on my XL 650 and thought of a couple of improvements I think I am going to make. 1 a pin or clip to hold the case feeder out of position so you can manually place a piece of brass with out hassling with the mechanism. 2 a pin, clip or something to lock the primer feed system to prevent having to empty it or deal with over run primers. New to the group looking forward to some informative discussions

On the case feeder, insert a large bottleneck case into the casefeed swing arm, one large enough not to drop through the adapter. This blocks the arm from swinging back under the case feed adapter so it can't pick up a cartridge.
