Smeeg Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) I’m using a dedicated 650 tool head for .233 brass prep Prep tool head: Station 1 decap/full length resize Station 2 blank Station 3 rapid trim Station 4 blank Station 5 Lyman M die(to debur and get ready for bullet feeder) my problem is the rapid trim vacuum shroud is hitting the pin that holds the tool head in. Are you guys just leaving it out? Edited April 15, 2020 by Smeeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m700 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'm not using m die and using the trimmer in station 4. But your better off modifying the shroud. Even with the cheapest vacuum you should have plenty of suction. It may even be an improvement mine says down when the hose is connected if you drill a hole where the pin is it may force it to stay straight.

chevrofreak Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I run my M die on my loading toolhead. I wet tumble again after sizing and trimming to get the lube off and to knock more shavings off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anbrumm Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I made a home made pin that I can get in/out with the shroud attached. It is not something to be real proud of, but it was a cut off piece of an old mag spring ( L shaped) with some masking tape to make it fit tighter. It's not pretty, but I figured it's better than no pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeeg Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) I figured it out a roofing nail cut down to size and ground a flat off on one side of the head and I have to take the Vacuum shroud off to get it out but that’s not a big deal.
