Primer removal

[Lewdan 17]

Hi All, i am using a LEE 4 position reloading press, and generally its a great piece of kit for the money only gripe i have is that when i am depriming the cases the old primers pop out and go in all directions there doesen,t seem to be any method to collect or direct them into same area misses getting a bit pissed off with picking them up in cleaner. Am i doing something wrong

Cheers

snap, i have a single stage classic press and it dose the same, 1 in 10 actualy goes into the tube, keep finding them for weeks afterwards.

 

shall be interested to read if i too am doing things wrong, or if its just a design fault.

If it's like my Lee press and the primers are supposed to go down the inside of the press and down the shute you will need to have the primer attachment (the bit you would use to press the primers in) fitted as this knocks the removed primer in the right direction and down the tube.

mega hunter has the answer if you fit the attachment that re primes it directs the used primers.look in the kit i did the same thing but worked it out after only a year.he he

clean the channel with some silicone oil and use a cotten bud to wipe the residue off the slide of the turret press, you should find a big difference,

 

i had one and changed it, to achieve more accuracy, As the turret lifts when you push the dies down into the round, hence changing OAL and misalining the head...

 

roundout was all over the place with it,

 

BUt i hope this helps you out...

i have the redding big boss 2 single stage press its good. as it comes with a piece of tube on the bootom of the arm. the spend primers drop into the tube and you empty it when you finished.

 

sometimes though they fly out the ram if you deprime to quick
