primer drop issues with dillon 550c


Recommended Posts

 Have loaded  on  2 different   550c machines(45 acp+ 9mm)  about 5,000  9mm  and 2000  45  acp so far(LPP with the  45  acp)

I have noted that both machines are failing to drop the primers into the primer cup.  I noted the primer feed stop  pin was not moving back far enough to drop the primers. Nothing blocking the prime r  bar from moving. 

 

culprit appears to be the primer feed stop  pin wore down  just a  mm or 2 was all it took to stop the process.  just fyi in the  future

Odd, I have a similar set up, 2x550 - one with LP for .45 and one SP for 9, 38 spl and 357 mag.

Probably have loaded several 10k of rounds on either one, but never had an issue with this pin.

The only problem I have from time to time on either machine is an upside down primer, then the

show stops and I have to take the priming system apart and remove the upside down primer (or is it

down side up???).
