Take the shellplate off and clean underneath it, then tighten it back up.
Thanks. I'd tightened/adjusted but problem still presents. I'll clean and look for debris.

No changes to the 550 primer feed in quite a long time.
-
Has Dillon upgraded priming systems. Have a 550 about 4 years old.
-
Powerfactor show guys have a great video about tweak to eliminate primer issues. I did as they suggested and I have zero primer issues now. Love the press.
-
I had the same concern. With a single brass in the 550 I intentionally did a double charge to see what it looked like with my powder of choice. Now easy to see the difference as I run the press and visually look as I index.

Don't use a RT 1200 but my trimmer does the same, makes tiny brass thread/string.

About the same time I got mine.

Misfeed. Dang autocorrect.

Finally had time to do the washer mod today. Haven't had a misdeed yet.
-
Love the press but the primer drop is still 7/100 error. Powerfactor guys talk about gluing a washer on primer drop activator.
Anyone done this? Results?

Go to Brian's web site and he has easy click for 550. You can customize it minimally or "as it should be". I couldn't afford the max originally, but bought incrementally.
Focus on one caliber. Get that up, then add others as you can.
Slow and steady wins this race over time. You have to factor value and quality of tools. Things of value endure.

I use it. A light touch goes a long way. I use the nesting trays to sort by size/caliber and that process takes care of dirt and rocks.
In a very short time I can recapture, sort and be ready to clean and begin the reloading process again. I always come home with more than I shoot.

As others have said, many of you have mentored. And this forum has been invaluable.

When dent appears, like others have said, I stop and clean, brush and vacuum the area. Mine are all caused by debris.

My brass, my glock brass, range brass, any brass, no issues in 9mm.

I landed at 550 since they use industry standard dies. Initially I too thought I'd only need pistol dies but over the years have add rifle. 550 just has more upside IMHO.

Love my 900 but it does leak a little powder at the drop. I've tried dryer sheets, wiped down the hulls, etc. but still leaks.
Ideas?

I'm a 550 guy for the medium volume I load in multiple calibers.

Had one for about two months. I love it. Not my first Dillon so setting powder and shot weight was familiar.
