I had the same problem mostly when loading .45's. It seems the .45 primers will turn over in the plastic end of the loading tube. Thats the end which you insert the primer. To correct this try, after you load a full stick, insert the long black plastic rod which tells you how many primers you have left, into the bottom of the full primer tube which you have just loaded. Push the rod into the bottom of the tube so the primer are pushed up past the plastic end on the tube. Leave the plastic rod in the tube and insert it into the Dillon press. Let the plastic rod follow the primers down the tube. Remember never turn over tube without the rod inserted. This will prevent the primers turning over in the end of the tube. Leaving the rod in will also clear the tube so when you lay it down with a couple of primers left in it they will not turn over. I think it is the left over primers that are turning over. I have loaded 1000,s of .45 & .40 bullets without a problem by using this method. I have a Dillon X650. PS: Got the info from a Dillon rep.
