I ran across some Federal 9mm NT brass and it has crimped primers.
Be careful if you’re running a progressive press.
I had a solid lock up on the Auto Champ I just finished setting up to size,...

The press was not designed with a blast shield around the primer magazine and the one that I have made rubbed against the die plate so I had to mill a relief into the die plate aprox 0.100” deep and...

I inspect after tumbling but some crack after sizing or when the case mouth is belled. It is easier to recover the primer than pull the boolit and catch the powder and recover the primer!

I have the primer magazine almost finished! It is a little wobbly so I have to figure out his to make it more stable.
It works well, I primed 100 cases with no problems!

#1 is the thickness of the primer slide. The material that the slide is made from is 0.125” and a small primer is 0.115” thick...

Success!
I installed the milled down primer slide and no primer feed problems!
I ran 50 cases through with only a couple of case feed problems but no primer problems!
I have to work on the primer...

Primer feed problem still!
I drilled the hole in the reduced thickness slide off center so I redid it and got it on center and we will see if that solves the issue!
