I just had this happen last week and this is how I got it out. I didn't realize this is apparently a not so rare breakage. I ordered a new one and received it in 5 days. I tried calling to see if it was covered by warranty , but could never get through.

PRIMERS - FEDERAL GOLD MEDAL MATCH SP VS FEDERAL SMALL PISTOL
hiflyer51 replied to TheGoatMumbler's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
I don't think there is a adjustment for primer depth on the 750. Dillon says: "Push down on the edge of the shellplate at station 4. If it feels springy, then the shellplate bolt needs to be slightly tighter." I can check that. -
PRIMERS - FEDERAL GOLD MEDAL MATCH SP VS FEDERAL SMALL PISTOL
hiflyer51 replied to TheGoatMumbler's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
That's interesting, I didn't think about that. I assumed that the magnum rifle primers were just harder. I am using a Dillon 750. -
I have the Primer Pro. No problems at all with CCI and Federal primers - SPP, SPMP, SRP, SRMP. I have had 5 upside down primers out of 20K. Loads a tube of CCI in less than a minute [Federals are a little slower], much faster than I can load a 100 rounds on my Dillon 750. It does not require me to watch it while I am reloading. I do not take it apart for maintenance. I take the drum off and wipe all exposed surfaces with Pledge and then a dry paper towel. I use Pledge on a Q-tip and wipe down the feed ramp , and all the opening slots in the drum itself from both sides.

PRIMERS - FEDERAL GOLD MEDAL MATCH SP VS FEDERAL SMALL PISTOL
hiflyer51 replied to TheGoatMumbler's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
Just to add to this. I have recently gotten some CCI small rifle magnum primers. I loaded up 100 of them and shot them at the range today. I had 7 light strikes out of the 100 in both of my X5 Legions. They all fired the 2nd time. Looks like they are only good as training ammo - to induce random malfunction practice. -

I have used small pistol, small pistol match, small pistol magnum, and small rifle with no problems and no appreciable differences out of X5 Legion. I load 125/135 Blue Bullets w/Sport Pistol. -

+1, been using these {Hanes} for a couple of years, generally 2 for $18 and multiple colors. For me they work as well, or better, than many very pricey shirts I have tried.
