    Mounting screws for Rock Chucker primer feeder

    My patience has run thin searching, so I turn here. What size are the screws that go here in the picture? Where can I source them. I’d like to mount my Automatic Primer Feed.

    My rockchucker has 10-32 x 5/16" set screws in those two holes.
    From the look of the primer feeder, you probably slip the feeder into the slot and adjust it where it will let a primer drop into your primer arm and then tighten the 2 setscrews against the primer feeder.

      I would without hesitation call rockchucker customer service and ask. I inherited an older rockchucker that was missing screws and the handle grip. Rockchucker sent the parts free of charge. Great product and great service after the sale (years ago).

        Been gone too long. It's been 15 to 20 years since i had to shelf my guns. Those early years sucked.

          Lee needs to mount a giant Most-Favored-Customer picture in their board room of the person who convinced RCBS to go
          with that fiasco priming method.

          Lee must of sold thousands and thousands of pot metal body & plastic priming plunger to Rock Chucker users everywhere
          do to that marvelous priming system. Including me.

          Seriously, OP, that priming system is totally FUBAR.

            After you acquire the correct screws, my suggestion for mounting the primer feeder is to move the primer arm to align it just under the primer feeder, the snug the feeder. I snug the upper screw first, recheck the alignment, then snug the bottom screw. It may take a couple of tries to get it aligned just right for large and small primers.

              Yeah - I've never understood the advantage of using the RCBS press mounted system. I have happen to have the Lee Autoprime, but there are several other systems that work a lot better than what RCBS has on the press.

              I've been using RCBS presses for decades, and have always removed the primer arm thingy - it's useless in my operation.

                Man, what a stupid invention. I walked out of my local gun shop like a peacock thinking I got a great deal out of the miscellaneous bin ($20)�� after two days of playing with this thing, a trip to Ace and precious primers falling into the carpet forever lost …I ended up going to Sportsman’s Warehouse and spent $55 on a RCBS hand primer. I primed 500 pieces of .38 special and 250 pieces of .357 mag in no time. I love the hand priming tool.

                  Ahh yes, I've tossed mine in the trash too. It really sucks, it is only useful if you have no other method of priming.

                    I stopped priming on my press years ago.
                    I hand prime now and prefer it. I can do the priming while I watch TV.
                    A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

                      Put it on ebay, somebody will want it! They don't know how bad it is.
