powder spillage
Quote from Reloader on July 10, 2012, 6:41 pmHas Dillon addressed this problem yet. I am new to the XL 650, only have it a week. This topic seems pretty old. I switched from 38 specials, (no jumping powder due to case size) to 40 S&W last night and I am getting a mess due to powder jumping all over the place. I have the shell plate tight as possible without locking it up completely. I guess I will try cutting down the spring tonight. Any other fixes for this problem since it's been about 6 months since the last post? I actually have been able to minimize the problem by slowing down but I have to go so slow that it defeats the purpose of the high capacity loader. There is no way to achieve the published specifications for output on this press without the powder jumping all over the place. I can't imagine what is going to happen when I switch to 9mm.
