Smitty79 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 My worst stoppage problem on my 650 is that about 3 times in 500 rounds a case is fed primer up. I see it most of the time. But correcting is annoying. What are likely causes and how do I fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stick Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 You might be putting in too much brass into the casefeeder, or you're running your casefeeder on high. According to Dillon, the most you should put into your casfeeder is a quart sized amount of brass and run the casefeeder on low for pistol.

Furrly Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Moving casefeeder on the up stroke and down stroke.. Find a way to bolt down the casefeeder to a wall if you have one near you.. I'll upload a pix later to show how I fixed that problem.. No more upside down cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaterHead Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I have never experienced that. At least 150k rounds. I usually only put in a few big handfuls at a time, so perhaps “Stick” has the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty79 Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 I run 2 cups of 9mm brass at a time. I haven't looked at whether speed makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiggerJJ Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Anchor the casefeeder to the wall. It's moving too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if your bench isn’t screwed into the wall you need to do this first. I promise you my bench was sturdier than yours: 250lbs... and built with 4x4s for the beams with a 1.5” thick top. Lagging it into the studs still made a huge difference. Edited August 17, 2019 by MemphisMechanic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichJacot Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 The only time I've had this issue, there was a brass stuck under the feed plate making it ride high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHAVEGAS Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Buy a bullet feeder . Since I got one my left hand grips the case feeder and keeps it stable and that eliminated brass flipping from too much wobble. Not perfect still, but almost perfect.

Roons Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) I agree with having to many cases or too much wobble will cause cases to be upside down more often. Also, if you ever have cases jam up near where they drop down, watch the video below. Its a simple, cheap, easy fix, but I've never had a single jam since adding those pieces of plastic (a curved piece of a ziploc cup or plastic cup works great to get the curve).
