Reloading incident :(

[chemo]

oh and please, for god's sake, it's DILLON not DILLION
if you have a Dillon and call it a dillion, YOU LIE!

It's just the way the dillon design is, if you set of a single primer, it can chain fire into the stack and scare the crap out of you. Never heard of anyone getting hurt tho as the shield is well designed.

Something is missing here... I have loaded literally 100's or thousands of rounds on my 650's and never ignited a round... let alone a primer... I've loaded primers sideways upside down and almost inside out... (one odd 45 ACP with those stupid new small primers)
Maybe I missed something... None the less I've seen some of the things dillon has covered under warranty.. A Square deal where the handle was stood on.. (guy was changing a light bulb and the chair wasn't quite tall enough...

Had a set of 303 brit dies fail on me. (Old tired threads) Called them. Guy was shocked. Not that it had died but that I had a 303 die. Said he would call back in 10 minutes to see what could be done. Called back in 10 and told me they are sending out all the parts needed to replace the broken part. He then told me that they have not made that die in something like 20 years

So wait... you prime after having seated the bullet?? I'm confused, am I missing something?

Its a progressive press......you are priming one cartridge case, inserting a new cartridge onto shell plate, putting new bullet onto case mouth of the charged case in one turn on the upstroke of the handle.....on the down stroke the plate goes up the new inserted empty spent cleaned case from the case feeder is decapped and the newly primed cartidge ahead of it takes a powder charge, the bullet is seated in another previoulsy charged case and the one ahead of it gets a crimp and on and on and on........
