Lee Classic Turret

[Franklin7X57]

Got the turret and have loaded about 600 rds. now the LPS Primer Arm doesn't want to go under the shellholder with a primer in it. Wiggle the lever a little and it goes in.

Does the Pivot Pin(part #2885) have anything to do with it?

Thanks.

I have found that if I remove the primer arm and clean inside the ram and make sure the edges of the primer arm is clean, these stoppages quit for awhile. Clean under the shellholder too.

I also stoned the sides of one of my primer arms to increase reliability.

Great press for my needs.

I did the same thing and also ground the bottom of the arm slightly. It wasn't exactly parallel to the axis of the case and would sometimes be problematic.

I shouldn't have traded that little press. I loaded thousands with no problems. Never wore out the plastic auto index piece either.

I drilled and tapped the arm so that a could put a bolt thru it and adjust the bolt down so that the arm moves up sooner. Totally solved the problem FOREVER.
