primers flipping sideways and upside down
Quote from Reloader on August 18, 2012, 7:18 pmPlease help. I load .45acp and .38 spl on my 650. when loading .38 spl the machine runs flawless, knock on wood. When I convert to 45acp, on average 1 out of every 10 primers end up either sideways or upside down. Any ideas to remedy. The priming system is nice and tight with no wiggle or play. I'm at a loss?

Quote from Reloader on August 24, 2012, 3:58 pmTry just cycling primers through the loader, removing them by hand when you push forward on the handle. Make sure they come up flat. Is the U-shaped notch in the shellplate centered over the primer? Otherwise, call us for assistance when you can be in front of the phone.

You want a small amount of space between the primer station locator tab and the case. About the thickness of a business card.

Quote from Reloader on September 25, 2012, 6:32 pmWhen I get reloading very fast I find I have more flipped primers. This is caused by the primer coming up before the shell plate is fully indexed and stopped at its new position. The primer edge catches on the edge of the new shell plate position primer hole as it is approaching its resting spot flipping the primer over.
