Jeremyc_1999 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Anyone have a good solution to do case prep? I'm thinking a 650 with a casefeeder and a universal recapping die so that I can deprive everything before wet tumbling with ss pins I'm currently using a single stage for this but it takes about 10 times longer than loading on my 1050 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithcity Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Yes. A 650 with a mark 7 auto drive. Mighty armory decap, swage-it in place of priming, a couple sizing dies just because. I run my 9mm through the above setup after wet tumbling and rollsizing. After processing on the 650 i wet tumble again to clean primer pockets.

I swap between two tool heads to process, then load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did you move to a 1050? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How easy is it to swap tool heads? Depriving is a dirty process and I would like to keep my 1050 shiny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the first wet tumble necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmz Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I went with the 1050 just because that’s what I load on so I would have two of the same machines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depriving is a dirty process and I would like to keep my 1050 shiny 5 minutes or less. I use to do one pass loading so I would clean it often anyway. Now with an ammobot I process with all the sensors so that I can load trouble free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregJ Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I have 3 tool head for my 1050, one to load 9mm, one to load 45ACP, and one to process. Swapping is easy and quick, but it still takes a little fine tuning to get the loading back to where it was. I also do a detail strip down and clean of the press after processing, and before loading, and vice versa. Helps to keep it running smooth. Here is my AB driven 1050 processing 9mm at 2600 CPH. I have gone over 2800 with my Rev2 Ammo Bot. Also strongly recommend The Judge die when processing, it catches all sorts of ugliness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the first wet tumble necessary By installing the Swage it 650: No, wet tumbling is not necessary just as pre-processing your brass is not necessary. wet tumbling with steel pins gives you cleaner brass.

I wet tumble with pins after the fact, just don’t before preprocessing. I might have give it a try preprocess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
