    Reliable primer insertion on 650...

    I was having primer hangups on my 650. I thought it was a primer crimp issue. That I had not removed the crimp completely.

    After some time on my 650, I’ve come to realize that I can push the case into the shell plate and the primer would go in easily when it wouldn’t before. I did this for a little while till I realized that adjusting the spring loaded shell pusher on the primer stage to tightly hold the case, got rid of the problem entirely.



    The manual states to adjust the shell pusher thingy to just barely touch the shell. My way seems to work better.

    Just sayin. 300 rounds, 0 bad primers, 0 primers wasted.

    Seems there's always some "alignment" items to work through on a progressive. Good tip, thanks.
