Shell plate not clearing primer
Quote from Reloader on April 15, 2019, 1:55 pmHello again,
I recently switched from 9mm to 223 on my 550c. I started with 9mm and 223 is the second caliber. Once I switched and got every thing all setup and ready to load I tried to start loading on station #1 but the primer gets caught up on the shell plate. If I slightly raise the ram it will clear, but that is far too tedious. How can I fix this? I didnt have problems with cci small pistol primers. The rifle primers I'm using are Winchester small rifle. How do I fix this? Here are some pics:

With that being said, is what I am experiencing normal for this machine?
Cant wait to start loading bottleneck stuff!
