Re: New addition to the press
I will try to post a picture later this evening of what it looks like. Costs nothing, but works well.. How is it feeding with the 45 ACP's?

Re: New addition to the press
Andy,
Just a little fix here if you find this to be a problem. Occasionally when loading 223, I would find that the feed tube would allow the cases to drop correctly, but when the cases reached the top where the microswitch is, the smaller case diameter or a 223 would not trip the microswitch. This would result in the feeder continuing to run cases until they fell to the floor or jammed the wheel.
My solution to this problem was to take the microswitch out of the feeder, and slip a small piece of heat shrink over the microswitch lever. It extends the switch by about 1/4" or so. This allows the switch to be depressed by the smaller necked cases.
Hope this helps someone in the future.
