Has anybody ever got a primer stuck in the primer feed tube, I mean really stuck (F*%king win primers).I can't move it at all with the plastic rod.
 
or else you got a large pistol primer stuck in a small primer tube. first thing to do is pull the tube out of the primer feed. next spray a bunch of WD 40 to neutralize the primer, i would wait a minimum of 30 minutes and preferably 24 hours. next use a small wooden dowel and drive it out of the top. don't try and drive it through.

easy fix just buy a new tube if you are close to cowtown or edmonton. TSE or phoenix should both have one.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I have.
Serious pain in the ass! And it was a small rifle primer in the small diameter tube...

I soaked the entire tube in a pail of water overnight, and drove the obstruction out with a steel rod. No other solution really.

I called up Dillon and asked it this was a common problem, the guy said it does happen from time to time with out of round primers, then asked for my customer number and said he would drop one in the mail "no charge". They are just the best.
