ok so 2 days ago i reloaded 100 rounds of 45 ACP, and all went well, with the mixed brass...S&B, Starline, WIN, Federal.
today i reloaded 200 more rounds.
all was going good, until i came across 3 S&B cases, that the primer only partially got punched out, maybe about 1/2 way and then of course, the shell plate would not rotate (Dillon 550c), as it was now jammed.
i was like WTF, all these other cases and now this.??
so you Dillon owners know, raise ram, unscrew locking allen screw, then unscrew the center larger allen screw, then remove plate.
now, i do have a Lee decapping die, and the original decapping pin broke, so i replaced it with a "Squirrel Daddy" much longer and much more heavy duty replacement.
as per directions, the decapping pin was adjusted to proper length (i think it was 3/16's?) i actually was able to use the former decapping pin as a gauge,
it was "strange" that i was going along and all was well, but 3 S&B cases, the primer cup would only come out about half way..??
so anyways, i readjusted the decapping pin to go "deeper", and all is well.
any of you Dillon guys, or other press guys, ever come across your decapper suddenly not punching out the primer when all others it worked fine?
