So I set my machine up, long story short I had nothing but problems with my primer assembly. I Couldn’t run more than 2-3 rounds without a flipped and crutched primer. Being the long holiday weekend I couldn’t speak to them until Tuesday Ultimately, my primer push rod isnt lined up with the shell plate.(see picture), but the swage rod is perfectly centered. Stemming from the primer problem, and my impatience I broke the base of the small primer assembly. They are sending me a new one. I also broke one of the bearings on the indexing assembly. they are sending me out a new one as well, but are out of stock so they sent me a link to purchase the bearings separately on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B071D499GB?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image When contacted customer service yesterday and they’re mailing me out a whole bunch of new parts saying there was a bad batch with poor Quality control. seemed as if I’m not the only one to have this problem on a brand new machine. Either way, I’m not too concerned. I was just looking forward to running a lot of rounds on my few rare days off

So here is a sectioned case with a primer being pushed in. My swager is perfectly centered I guess I’ll have to wait until Tuesday to talk to customer service

Show my swage rod seems to be centered fine my primer rod seems to be a little off. Is this something like the problem you were having? edit- It seems my problem is that my primer rod isn’t centered. But my swage rod is. I’m going to swap out to the large primer rod so I can eliminate the possibility of having a bent rod. I played around with the four screws on the chrome bar sliders and I can’t get the primer rod centered, but then my swage rod isn’t and makes contact with the plate

Just being proactive, but what did you use to shim?small washer?

I bought the fw pins to try out, I just haven’t had much time this week. I’ve been helping Santa by putting my kids presents together for him

My thoughts exactly

My stock master 9mm is insanely accurate and consistent

Well I went Ahead and bought the x-10 it’s way more massive then I had thought,. I have it all built and running smooth. Hopefully have some time this week to setup all of my dies. I was going to use my bullet feeder off of my lnl. But I think I’m going to order the setup built for the press. first impressions are that there has been a ton Of forward thinking about this press. Just the fact that the tool head as about 9 3.5mm jacks tells me that there a lot of plans for this press. Everything piggybacking off each other is really nice too the Qc is def slacking. When unboxing a few screws just were loose in the box and casefeeder. The threads in the tool head were loaded with crap. Not to mention the amount of protective oil on everything so overall so far I’m impressed and happy, just got to keep in mind that the comparable press is more then double the money and I would never justify buying a press for that much. on a side note. Has anyone ran their bullet feed system with coated bullets? my planned setup is 1 case feed 2 universal deCapper with small pin 3 u die with deCapper 4 swage with hold down 5 prime with hold down 6 expander 7 power drop 8 powder check. 9 bullet feed( Hornady/mr bullet die) 10 seat crimp

thanks guys

I have a shield rms on my shield plus. I love it for carry. Also check out the holosuns, they have shake awake

So which one exactly works with the Lee universal Decap die?

Yeah I would like a pair for my force compact. lok has them. But they don’t fit the newer models.

Yes that looks like it it has its quirks, took me a little bit to figure out how keep it running smooth. But I feel that’s anything with progressive loading

Hard to believe anyone is willing to wait for one of these.

I have one, and loaded around 7-8k on it. No complains. I’ve broken a little clip thing in it, and the seller on eBay send me an extra parts kit for it. I also have no experience on the real hornday setup to compare it to

I shot with a local Gm with an infinity 38sc. He said buy once, cry once. And his gun just runs

Thanks. That’s an honest response.

I pre process all my brass on a APP. First decap. Then wash. Then swage. Since I started swaging, I noticed I have a lot less hiccups in priming stage.

Are you have problem like some people are reporting with the fx10

Can you guys post a link Is the doctor footprint is the same as the venom?

Price of 556\223. Hasn’t reflected that. Lol

Agreed with ranger above I run two businesses, and have a young family at home. I stopped worrying about trying to win and just go and have fun with my friends. This is a group of guys that I met at matches. We always shoot together and pretty much fill a squad of 15 Granted, I do have two matches amount that are within 10 minutes from my house. But they do travel to matches almost every weekend. I pick and choose which ones I go to that aren’t local. Fortunately, my wife is very supportive and going out shooting is my way of blowing off steam. Best recommendation is stop making it a task and make it a reward. I’ve come to the conclusion this year that I don’t have the time to be in the top 10 of my local matches justGo shoot as a stress relief. Me and my group of friends have so much fun when we go and we couldn’t careless how we shoot.

Maybe contact USPSA and let them help you, it’s a long shot considering, but worth a shot

Not that I’ve noticed, I’ll try and get a picture for you guys. edit: this is what I use as a surface Just backwards, The back is smooth. I used gorilla glue construction adhesive to glue it down, and I have no problems. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Glasliner-4-ft-x-8-ft-White-090-FRP-Wall-Board-MFTF12IXA480009600/100389836
