Aggieddad02 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Lately my 650 will occasionally not drop a case. I am loading 40 S&W and I am lubing the cases before the reloading session. My 650 has never done this before and just don't know what the cause could possibly be. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Walter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 First thing I would check for is gunk in the adaptor from lubed cases passing through it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggieddad02 Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 I thought about that Sarge and cleaned all of the parts that come in contact with the case in the process with some M-Pro 7. Didn't correct the issue. Just so strange that I have never had this before and all of a sudden it starts. I spoke to Dillon and they sent me a new indexing cam which I have not yet installed. Guess tomorrow that will be on the calendar. As always thanks for the courtesy of the reply Sarge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donald Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I had the case feeder not feeding all the time, had to slightly adjust the ramp that moves the arm that gets the single case from the tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimk60 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) I had this happen once. The cause of my problem was the case feed arm return spring had broken, and the 2 pieces were binding up inside the return spring hole. That kept the case feed arm from moving far enough to drop the case. Check the spring. Ya just never know.

Jimk60 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 A question, why are you lubing your pistol cases? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GDad Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I had this happen last week on my XL650 loading 40 S&W. Turned out all I had to do was loosen the cam screw (#9 on user manual diagram) and adjust the case insert slide and slide cam. That fixed it.

When loading 40 S&W I use a Redding Dual Ring sizing die to insure the Glock bulge is not an issue. Lubing makes the process a lot easier and by the way it does not take a whole lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GDad Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Sounds like The Donald ran into the same problem and solution that worked for me. It's a 2 second fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it seems 3GDad, I spoke to Dillon on Monday of last week and they sent me a new Insert Cam, the black sloped part that pushes the case, going to change it out today and see if that takes care of the problem. I was curious to see if there were other considerations. Thanks for the time to reply to my OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrasam Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I'm interested in hearing how this ends up getting resolved. If it is not gunk in the adaptor, the case must be hanging up somewhere else--is the cam arm moving fully forward (wondering if the case is not making it past the shelf to a point it can drop).
