XL650 Video
Quote from Reloader on January 10, 2013, 12:52 pmThe demonstration video makes it look easy. Of course, it's all in the setup, but once that's done, it looks like the operation is smooth. However, the model said that in order to seat the primer, you must push the handle forward after you bring it back up. When she went through the continuous loading process of placing bullets on the cases, etc., was she pushing forward to seat the primers? It didn't look like she was, but if it was all one smooth movement from downstroke to upstroke to seating the primer, it wasn't obvious to me.
I haven't started using my XL650 (yet!), I just moved, just got it mounted on the bench, and will be setting it up when I have a chance.
Thanks!
