Oh NO Mr. Bill!!
Yep. Broke my Dillon. First up for bids, I was having trouble getting my 650 to prime. Took it apart as it appeared the turret wasn't indexing properly. It was. Seems the primer feed was out of alignment and needs adjusting. 40 Minutes down the Tubes.
Then there was a big BANG and it locked up SOLID. No move. Took forever to get it apart enough to move again. With no cases in the press, ran perfect. With cases, it locked solid. Then I noticed the De-Capping pin looked a little wonky donkey. Ah Ha says I. Bent De-Capping pin. I have those on hand. To take the die apart, you have to remove the little "E" clip that holds the Decapper. OK.
PING!!!
That little ring disappears into the ether. I think it's still in the shop. Somewhere. With the Dust Bunnies. Those, I don't have on hand. Canabalize says I. I have many tool heads. Back in business. Finished the run but found there was damage to the station 1 case feed plate. Don't have one of those either.
Hot message to Dillon (Can't call. Have to message). A new "E" clip and plate will be sent Monday (Happy Ending). Monday I will also call Dillon Sales and order a package of "E" clips and an extra feed plate or three.
Stay Safe Out There.
