I'm glad you posted this. I processed some and thought I had the setup correct, but when I tried loading primers on crimped brass, they wouldn't seat. I was probably adjusted similar to your first 2 pictures. I cut a case as you did and adjusted the swage rods to fully seat, perhaps a little more than your 3rd and 4th pictures. I can feel an ever-so-slight cam-over, so I'm thinking I might have it set a bit aggressive. I haven't tried seating primers yet with this setup as I wanted to hear from someone with experience doing this. Thanks for posting.

Check you adjustments. S&B's feed 100% in mine. If you haven't tried it, Put a mouse pad under your RF100. I took me a few minutes to adjust, but it works great. I have to re-adjust when I run CCI, WIN or REM primers, but with some patience, they feed just fine.

I have one. It's hasn't seen a great deal of use, but it works well. I see these timers in most of the matches I attend, and know several people who also own them. Other that the responses to this post, I am not aware of issues with them. It certainly feels solid enough for me and unless it's being dropped a lot or shot, it should last a long time. The display is large and easy to see (I have old eyes) and it's simple to use. I recommend it.

Reloading porn! but way overkill for my production needs and certainly out of my budget.

Congrats, but that sounds real expensive to get there - LOL!

Welcome to the forums.

Thank you. From looking at other pictures, I assumed the stop needed to be adjusted to contact the brass roller, not the back of the slide. The adjustment to the brass roller allowed over-travel rearward and that was giving me my feeding problems. I adjusted the stop to contact the back of the slide and we're running 100%. Thank you. I hope this helps.

Welcome back

I know it's a pain, but Dillon will make it right. I'm working through a frustrating primer feed issue on my 1050, but as for case feeders, my 1050 and 650 work flawlessly for 223 REM and my pistol rounds. It'll work out and you'll love it.

Will do. Thank you.

Welcome to the forums!

Gave it a shot again tonight. My original primers were S&B. Tonight I tried CCI SRP's, Remington and Winchester SPP's. All yielded the same results. If I pull the handle at any speed other than super slow motion, it will not pick up the primer. When I go slow, it picks up all primers 100%. I don't get it. I'll call Dillon tomorrow and maybe find a local with better working knowledge of this press. Short of that, I'll have to send it in. FWIW, I inserted the primer mag tube from my 550, but it performed as described above.

Done, done, and done thank you. I talked to Shane this morning and he too recommended trying a different brand primer. I'll do that tonight after work and report back. Thanks everyone.

No I haven't. These are S&B's and since they worked fine otherwise, I figured it was not a primer brand issue. I have some Winchester and CCI's on hand and will give them a shot. Thanks. I'm going to run this by Dillon this morning to see what they think. I'll post my progress.

Yo Brethren - I'm new to the Super 1050, but have had it apart for cleaning and lubing several times - so by no means an expert, but familiar with its components. I bought it off this forum in near new condition, several months ago. It was setup for 9 mm but I bought a toolhead and set it up for processing 5.56 and banged out about 3k cases. I reinstalled the 9 mm toolhead to load, but it wouldn't feed primers without me manually fiddling with the slide actuating lever (if it was full rearward, I'd pull it forward and a primer would usually fall into the primer slide cup). I've scoured this forum and talked to Dillon today. Dillon offered suggestions but I was at work so could not be in front of the press during the conversation. This is as far as I've gotten: if I cycle the press very slowly, and I mean very slow, as the primer slide slides back to pick up the next primer, it will feed about 100% (10 for 10 primers tested). If I cycle the press even close to a normal speed, it will not catch the new primer. This is everything I've tried to this point: ensured magazine fill cap is seated but not tight ensured blue tip in good condition (fed primers down it and they flowed out smoothly). I even put a new cap on and tested it. It worked the same. ensured the primer slide was smooth, with no obstructions/friction, and that it slides to the primer slide stop. My primer slide has the brass roller. I polished the cup where the primer seats in the slide and manually cycled the slide, without the primer arm/cam assembly installed to ensure primers fell into the cup, and it worked fine (10 primers tested). re-installed the primer arm/cam assembly, ensured it was a close to parallel to press as possible and that it was not binding. The primer slide passes under and past the fill tube to the rear of the press when the back of the slide contacts the stop (over-travel, but I believe this is normal. I tried it again with a .45 ACP case on the follower but no difference. For more weight, i put a 147 grain, ACME bullet under the .45 case, but the extra weight did not help. Prior to the polishing but after some adjusting, the primers would occasionally fall out the bottom. I can't figure out how this happens. After polishing and more adjusting, the primers feed if I cycle very very slowly. If I try to cycle the press at a normal speed, it won't feed primers but will occasionally shoot one forward and out of the top, over the shell plate - and it comes out . I can't figure out how this is happening either. The channel for the primer slide is smooth and there is no slop for the slide to move side to side - at least that I can tell. This about covers it. I'v been playing with this every night for the past week and am out of ideas. Thanks in advance for your input.

You're going to love it Tanfarm - and you won't miss the powder check despite your OCD. It's easy to see into the case on a 650. IHAVEGAS - I only recently setup my 1050 with MBF. I don't think it possible to see into the case without craning your neck. This is why some of the others have come up with a relatively inexpensive solution using a mini camera. I don't see any other way, but again, it's a new experience for me and I'm still deep in the learning curve. I'll search for the post paste it here.

This Streamlight is a great light and I've had one for over a year now. I haven't shopped around lately, but Zoro is usually pretty solid on their pricing. Surefire also makes quality flashlights. https://www.zoro.com/streamlight-industrial-handheld-light-led-black-75834/i/G0780491/?gclid=CIv1tu20q9ECFZSIfgodwMcLDg&gclsrc=aw.ds
