Rollbar Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Works most of the time. New reloader and just set my press up today. I do have very ligh grease under the plate. Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollbar Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 I think I figured it out. Once in a while it doesn't rotate fully at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desmo412 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 You need to slightly adjust your indexing pawls. It takes some practice, but after a few minutes you will have it figured out. The pawls do move (unless you loctite the screws), so periodically check the timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzhitshard Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Mine is cursed with the same issue. A more positive finish (read thump) at the top of the up stroke and bottom of the down stroke greatly lessens the occurrence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desmo412 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 You shouldn't have to "thump" the handle. Just take some time to adjust the pawls and it will index perfectly every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollbar Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Thank you. I will try a little more adjusting for the top-seems to only hang up in one spot. Thanks again, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWFAN Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 adjust a little at a time. A little goes a long way, and if you go too far, getting it back can be just as frustrating. Less than 1/4 turns will go a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollbar Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Thanks, I was doing 1/8" turns or less last night. The bottom is perfect, now the top needs just a little. Learning Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babaganoosh Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I have a link to a site that explains it well. When I get home I'll find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SD1 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I believe its on the Hornady DVD and their Youtube site. If you look at the pawls on bottom you will see one is touching and preventing the complete cycle . I think you will have to turn that one in about a half turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollbar Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Excellent, thanks. Still playing w/the top cycle but it is 98% better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JACKIE40X40 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 mine drove me crazy, same issue followed the dvd ,called hornady 50 times, i did what they said! then i got the one guy at hornady. i used the hornady dry lube and cleaner, sprayed all the moving parts several times and let it dry completely.no issues since. i have been using the hornady dry lube for just about everything for many years. in this case i just did not use enough. just a suggestion.
