  1. Hi, I continually have brass get stuck on this part of the casefeeder which stops the casefeeder plate from rotating. I have to remove 45 brass on this area before brass releases into the tube about every 10-15 pieces. What can I do to fix this?
  2. Looks like the over-travel screw on the rear needed to be loosened. Thanks for the support.
  3. Thanks for the info. This is brand new. It has less than 200 rounds through it.
  4. New to the RL1100. The shellplate was previous aligned, however I manually moved it, which I learned from... Now every time I have the handle in the up position after completing a stage, the shell plate looks like this (not aligned with stage). When I pull the handle down thereafter, it promptly corrects as the two large pins go into the shell plate. I've tried manually correcting this, but the shell plate now continues to land like shown in the picture after a completed pull of the handle. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
  5. I'm new to the RL1100. Often, I get some crushed brass in stage 4, I believe before brass is primed. This smashed brass locks the shell plate and does not index for good reason. Looking for suggestions as why this might be. Thanks!
  6. Thanks for the insight here. What are the pros of doing each?
  7. I'm not seeing much 45ACP brass to swage on my RL1100. What die(s) can I substitute in this swage stage?
  8. I found this part in my old 550B box in the attic. I've looked around, but cannot find what this part is / part number. Looks to be like a spent primer slide? Is the an add-on or 550B, not 550C part?
  9. I get this funky ring around the inside of it (45 ACP) with my RL1100, which I never saw on my 550B. Thinking is this coming from the swage die. Is this a problem? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
  10. I tried this --> Start to lift the handle up gently. The ratachet tab will prevent the handle from being lifted further. Slowly back the detent screw out (counterclockwise) until the handle can lift, and pull the ratchet tab against the ratchet teeth. I've screwed the detent screw all the way counter-clockwise and the ratchet tab never goes to another ratchet tooth, thus not allowing the full stage to complete.. Its been ~8 days and still cant figure this out. The only way to enable the press to do one full cycle is by removing the ratchet tab.
  11. agreed, I want this feature to work as it should rather removing it. Thanks
  12. I tried this, eventually turning the screw all the way to the left and right using 1/8th increments. This didn’t work.
  13. I just unboxed my RL1100, assembled it, and ran one piece of brass through it, which got stuck on the swaging stage. Now every time I pull the handle down and then up 1/8th it gets stuck. What I am referring to stuck is the ejector tab hits and sticks on the very first tooth of the on toolhead ratchet. This will not allow me to fully move the handle all the way up. I've called Dillon. The technical rep said the ejector tab or the detent screw set might be defunct and will replace the ejector tab/detent screw set. We went over each of these pieces and it appears there is nothing wrong with each piece, so I don't feel like this solved anything. Might the be another issue that is not allowing the ejector tab to move over the teeth without getting stuck?
