not sure i tried but i dont think it would be a problem as long as you pulled the shellplate out the left side and was carefull putting inthe new one.

Yep stiff clear packaging plastic prebent and superglued with case in slot. has now been on for about six months.

just an update.....glueing a piece of plastic just in front of station has worked 100% of the time since then. thanks for replies.
-
thanks for posting its all the little things fixed that make a great running and shooting gun.

For me it was 2 times using range brass reloads stock barrel and case gauged rounds. Total rounds fired 5000 ?

just found this post after suggesting it in another post and have used them and i beleave my cost for shipping was $25 dealer to dealer.

i have used SMG ship my guns and was very happy with this company that is what they do and it was like half the cost of fed ex dealer to dealer. Not sure why i dont hear people suggest using this service more on this forum check them out.

New to me hopefully shoots as good as it looks and has competitive pricing. It will be interesting to see what people have heard

hard work almost always pays off weather you want to be a master shooter or sell something,

starting the cases in the first station is the problem case does not index very well backes out if not gently and carefully inserted in shell holder thats why the wire retainer i glued on worked it stops it from backing out

Had to switch dies, i am down to my armscor 9mm 124 gr that measure .353 Ordered Delta Presision today. Always forget to ask dillion when getting parts because i had the wire on. already going slow, best method is setting case in and coming straight up.
-
Update i installed a undersized lee 9mm die i made to fit the SD so now its really finicky. tried various finger swipes up down left right top of case bottom of case ect. nothing close to 100 %. going back to guide wire.
-
The best i have done is to jb weld a guide wire on This works really well till you have to remove the shell plate.
-
no adjustments on SD dies are unique to SD The sizing die is like a bolt screwed all the way in.

I have been reloading on this press for 2 years and still have trouble getting that first piece of brass started consistantly . If i do not put that brass in the shell plate perfectly it will be off center and hit the die and not go in. I just cant run this press smooth and consistanly. Help?

thanks
23 hours ago, zzt said:Two things to try. Loctite 272 holds better if you use the primer on all threads first. Let dry, then apply the thread locker. The downside is you only have 15 seconds to thread the comp on and clock. You'll be able to turn it with a wrench for a few more seconds. After that you have to heat, remove, clean and try again. The second is to research Loctite 2620. It is a red paste for threads from .500" to .750" and has a 650 deg. hold strength. That is 200 deg. higher than 272.
If accuracy is gone when your comp loosens, you have a poor thread fit. You'll also have problems getting the comp on concentrically. You should align ream every time you install the comp to be sure.
thanks for the info, you are right threads are loose and i have been using epoxy on them and red loctite on the 2 set screws' I will admit i do not clean the threads as good as i should. titanium comp steel barrel i think i want it pinned or welded? but maybe i will try your way first.

my comp loosens and accuracy is gone

the first thing i would do is check my mags are they within spec?

i am with seattledude after more than 2 years of trying and making gas pedals because every one says you need one i took mine off and every thing i thought i was fixing by using one is better without one.

I am with the first three people to respond to this. If your wrists are breaking the front of the barrel will go up.

It's not the size of the flash hole, but much more likely a crimped primer which can be hard to decap. OTOH, Berdan primed cases have two tiny flash holes to the decapping pin is trying to punch through the case
thank you, that will work, sorry this reply was for AHI pressed wrong tabs

That does not look like a fire ball or muzzle flash more like sparks i would check comp allignment and or gapping. Had simmular problem resolved by reeming comp.
