al503 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I can't remember the letter or number of the shell plates but I use the ones that dillon recommends for each caliber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougCarden Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Nope, works great! All you have to do is change out the #2 for the #3 buttons! DougC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GentlemanJim Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I have enough trouble keeping the press from spitting primers ,with the correct plate Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheldon Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 I take it you guys don't use the .40 expander at the swage station at all then?? I want to be able to utilize the swage feature as I get just enough crimped brass that it irritates me. Also, do the 9mm cases prime without problems with the extra slack at the priming station. I would think they wouldn't line up as precise with the extra slop. I have a .40 caliber conversion kit I don't need and was going to try to trade or sell and then buy a 9mm kit. If I can get by with just ordering the locator pins and the 9mm expander for the swage station, I would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAL Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Sheldon, If you want to get rid of that .40 sw conversion kit. Let me know, I was going to try this, But had a primer go off last night in the first 25 rounds of a reloading session. It blew the whole tube up, Was loading 9 mm and using all the correct parts but not the swage asm, As I use once fired RP that does not need swaged. The press was just asm after a major cleaning every part was cleaned in the ultra sonic then hand cleaned lubed and asm, So I know it was not dirt or some particle. Must have been a bad primer, I have the shell casing and it is fine, It must have went off in the slide asm. I don't think having the shell loose while being primed would be a good thing. I for one after that little scare with stick with the right plate for the right job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
