abigger04 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Hi all, I noticed this morning during a reloading session that the powder bar on my 1050 has started slamming home on every upstroke. Seems to actuate smooth as normal until about the last half of the upstroke and then it will suddenly slam backwards. I wasn’t sure how to fix this issue and Google hasn’t yielding any promising info. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m700 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 If it's like the 650s try tightening the allenkey/lock nut. Doing this made one of mine run smooth a different one of my measures tightening made worse. Whats happening is one of the brass colored pieces is hanging up on the body of the measure and tentioning on the spring. When it finally gives it pops. Making a ness with powder and making for a rough operationSent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstagn Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Take it all apart and clean, use light silicone spray on outside linkage only not on powder bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abigger04 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 I figured it was one of the brass pieces but I can't seem to figure out the cause. I'll try taking it apart again and using silicone spray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillon Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 The failsafe rod is what retracts the powder bar. Be sure not to add springs to retract the powder bar. With the handle up, the coil spring just above the blue wing nut at the bottom of the failsafe rod should be partially compressed, but the coils should not touch.

m700 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I don't think you have to take it apart I tried some silicone spray from underneath aimed away from the measure but toward the brass colored pieces. A quick shot of one shot got me 100 rds without this issue I'll try again with the siliconSent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
