Primer Seating Issues

[Midas]

So I finally got my 650 up and Running....while sort of.

Everything seems to be dialed in with a few exceptions.

1. When I am seating the primer it seems to be a little rough at the very end. What I mean by that is when I push the handle forward it sort of crunches at the very end. Almost like I have gone over a rough spot. A few times I have seen primers not seat correctly at all or the look like they have had a chunk taken out of them. Some have seated at a angle.

I am using Federal small Match Primers. I have had the Primer Mechanism Jam.

Also another thing that I frustrating is that the Primer Pick up Tunes have been getting jammed and not working properly. I get to about 5 Primers and they Jam. This has happened to 4 Tubes so Far. Crazy!!!

Any ideas,

Thanks,

Jeff

have you tried other brands of primers? maybe the primers are out of spec

Check the brass for crimped primer pockets..... and slow down at the end of the up stroke on the handle,you should be able to feet the primer seat. The shellplate should have enough movement in it to allow it to index fully.
