I had a really frustrating time yesterday... I was trying to set up the tool head with 9x19 dies. All went fairly well until I ran some test cases through the 750. About 20% of the once fired Mag-Tech cases did not deprime correctly. The primer would be bent outward and extend more or less half out of the primer pocket... but the primer did not eject. This is extremely frustrating to say the least. I was using a RCBS size/deprime die that worked great in my old Dillon 550b. Anyway, I don't have a Dillon 9mm carbide die so I decided to use my 38Super die which is labeled as being good for both 38Super and 9mm. Previously I had called Dillon and they didn't have much help to offer other than to put to deprime pin in a drill and re-shape the pin into a truncated cone shape... which I did with no improvement. Unfortunately I got in improvement with the Dillon dies... maybe even worse. I also have a Lyman size/deprime die so I gave that a whirl too... no improvement. Of course this happens on a Friday so Dillon is closed today... I have looked on the net for help on this topic but with not much luck. There is some speculation this is caused by a vacuum created in the die sucking the spent primer back into the primer pocket. Has anyone else had this issue? And if so would you please share your solution? I have been thinking and wonder if drilling a small hole in the die body might releive the vacuum and solve the problem? Or would I just ruin the die? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance Chuck

If you are willing to drive north about 25 min there is Peoples BBQ in Auburndale... the best BBQ in Florida... maybe in the U.S. It's on Dixie highway on the west side of the city... FWIW Chuck
