Primer size swap
Quote from Reloader on March 2, 2018, 4:29 amI got a 550B from a friend and he didn't give me all the stuff like small powder bar, small primer system parts and stuff and I am wondering what parts I actually need to swap out to switch to small primers from large, I know the magazine is different size and I know I need primer pick up tubes, what else needs to be switched? He was loading .45ACP and I am switching to 9mm and .223
