rolen1517 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Having problem with my 1050 not priming cases randomly after having it for about 50k rounds. I've taken everything apart multiple times and cleaned an lubed all moving parts. So what can I be missing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximis228 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 The plastic tip might be chewed up. Also try to clean the internal primer tube itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolen1517 Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 I did replace the plastic tip but haven't replaced the tube yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al503 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Check the rubber hose/sleeve on the back of the primer slide. It can get deformed/damaged as well. Run a q-tip through the primer tube. Just use the plastic rod to push it through. If you haven't done this in a while (or never) it'll come out black. It might get dirty enough to slow down the primers just enough to cause issues.

rolen1517 Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 When I removed the primer system again and cleaned out the tube I couldn't believe how dirty it was. Put it all back together again and haven't had any more issues. Thanks for all the good information guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoR Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 The 1050’s priming system makes me wonder how can these machines can be used commercially... it is SO BAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiggerJJ Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Really??? Been running mine for years without the rubber tube on the slide no problems. I suspect those who tend to badmouth the press are either incapable or unwilling to adjust things until they work properly. Also, try another batch of primers, the biggest problems I have run into have been related to the primer, not the press... jj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgy10 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I was having issues with my 1050, cleaned it all. Adjusted it.. then I had a ringer on a primer and blew the primer and chain dentanated the whole primer tube.... pretty dissapointed that it happened.

Also, don't over tighten the knurled cap on top of the primer tube housing. If too tight it can distort the little blue orifice down below. Just barely snug, if you please.

Some might think that a piece of equipment should run out of the box without having to fiddle with it all the time outside of regular maintenance. I have had my 1050 for less than a year, had a bolt shear off on the left side of the press. Dillion's response was to drill the bolt out and put a new bolt in. Seeing that it is under warranty the press will be dismantled and sent back to them to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you get that knurled cap in the tight spot, put a little masking tape on it so it doesn't move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1911onr Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Replacing the blue tip on the primer tube occasionally helps. Dillon sent me a bag of replacements gratis. Running a q-tip down the primer tube keeps it clean. And of course the slide and slide housing should be kept clean. When my priming system runs well, life is good.

Street Survival Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) Bolt sheared off on mine too. I did drill it out with a small drill bit and went to my local hardware store and purchased a new bolt. Everything is all good now.
