sinker77 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 When my shellholder rotates to the next position it indexes quickly and then snaps into position it causes the powder to spill out 3-5 flakes. To stop this I have been putting my finger against the case as it indexes under the seating die so it doesn't shake. Slowing down the speed of raising the handle doesn't affect this as the shellplate hits a point where it snaps into place on its own. Reloading 9mm only so far clays powder case about 3/4 full. Otherwise press has been great loaded about 1000 rounds so far. Thanks for any tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave33 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 When loading on my pro 1000 I developed the habit of, after grabbing my next projectile I put my finger over the top of the case coming into the seating die. This stopped any powder from jumping out and had my hand ready to place the projectile as soon as I looked in the case for powder. It actually works well and is very clean and fast. That being said my pro 1000 has seen several thousand rounds and now I can usually slow the handle down enough to where it won't spill any powder on its own when it clicks into place. Maybe my spring has worn in just enough. I have heard of a fix for the same issue from Dillon 650 owners. Dillon suggests clipping up to one coil off the spring so it doesn't snap so hard when it indexes. I've not tried this but if I had an extra spring sitting around I just might.

Raymond1975 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I use Dampnimg grease on my shell plate from my pro1000 and the action go smooth but my pro1000 is wel worn in 50.000 rounds reloaded on it so far. http://dx.com/p/excellent-performance-damping-grease-50g-112202?utm_source=GoogleShoppingUS&utm_medium=CPC&utm_content=112202&utm_campaign=424&gclid=CN2t29y_urgCFe4-MgodCTMABA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
