What am I doing wrong? This is the dirties machine I have ever used. I’ve been reloading since 14 years old. When I started with my father this particular progressive has a couple issues that I don’t know what I’m going to do. The priming system works great then all of a sudden after five or six shells they jam up. I’ve spent many hours adjusting getting everything perfect then they jam up again. I have been using this machine for about a week and had the machine break that bearing on the indexing arm so I had to wait and get a new indexing arm bearing again with primers jamming. The nut on the gear of the primer came loose and caused it to jam and break. I have spent many hours adjusting everything on that press to perfection with still having a primer issue. I cannot trust this machine because sometimes the primer isn’t even put in the case. That is the first issue. The second issue is with .223 Remington cases shaking powder all over the press. That’s the dirty part again I have adjusted everything to perfection but the cases shake as your index and I mean very dirty again I have adjusted everything perfectly. I go very slow it’s still shakes powder. I’m thinking that the buttons that hold the cases could be a touch bigger. Perhaps this would stop the shaking. If I could find the perfect O-ring to put over this button, that would be a good test perhaps you need to make a more specific button for each caliber shell I don’t know I’m just throwing that out there. I have never had problems like this with my Leemaster press. I hate to go back to just using that but I don’t know please help I really want this press to work.
The man said check the shell plate alignment at each station. Seems to me if it is aligned correctly at the first station they all are aligned. How can it be correct at one station and not at the others?
Which vibratory priming tubes does this work with? Double Alpha prima fill or Frankfort arsenal Vibra-prime ? Or will it require manual tube loading one at a time for primers?
hopefully the phone support guys get a full crash course on trouble shooting. Ive had issues, able to figure them all out except one. priming. its going to be the cancer for this press.
