Stars Want to Sell/Want to Buy / Re: As a new member can I sell my Star reloading items?
« Last post by ghostrider13 on June 13, 2025, 11:36:43 pm »
Well it looks like this posting works so here goes.
I have a Star progressive reloader that is all set up for 45 caliber along with 2 additional tool heads, 6 shell plates, 14 charge bars, and lots of extras as well as many dies. 45, 41, 44 , 223. All in great condition.
I cannot seem to post any pictures but can send you pictures to your email or text.
I would like to sell everything for one price but if I have no success doing this I will sell items separately.
Asking $1250 shipped.
I’m new to this forum but can provide references if you would like.
I belong to a number of other collector forums with lots of positive history.
I would prefer to sell to people who will appreciate this equipment rather than listing on eBay.
Feel free to contact me at 52097five zero 83 zero by text, or call and leave a message.
Thank you Phil C in Tucson

Loading Data & Reloading Procedures / Re: Small pistol primer brass 45acp

I know that Federal has made a small primer version of their 45 ACP case.    A few years back I put out a WTB for 2000 pieces once fired Federal brass on the Cast Boolets forum.   I probably ended up with 50 or so pieces with small primer pockets.

It doesn't matter how many times you go through them, there is always one more.

One thing to look for!

My one piece of SPP .45 was CCI Blaser.

My club collects all the range brass and recycles it for our junior program.
Going through the brass bucket at my club found almost a dozen or so, also CCI Blaser.

No others so far.

Finally experienced a small primer brass problem. What a PIA!
Locked the machine right up, needing dis-assembly to get it back up and running.

( I purchased new LP slide because one slightly deformed and needed tweaking)bThank you Bruce!

Not sure how I got the sp case as I only try to re-use my fired brass, but…

Does anyone know which manufactures use small pistol?
I am not sorting/checking visually, which adds very little time but is another step.

Anyone have any suggestions for quick identification or separation?

Star Reloaders / 3D printing
« Last post by NYKenn on May 31, 2025, 08:04:18 pm »
Picked up a 3D printer. Mainly because New York is starting background checks and may begin registering users. Typical Socialist crap from our useless Democratic/Socialist state government.

Have found many files online  for Dillon accessories to make, but zero for Star so far.
Anyone have any or know of some?
Would like a powder measure top to sort powder/bullet when puling.
Possibly other items as well.
Anyone have any or know of a source.
Thanks in advance.

Loading Data & Reloading Procedures / Re: Battle of the bulging brass
« Last post by NYKenn on April 08, 2025, 08:53:35 am »
I try not to use Glock fired brass, but get some occasionally. To fix this, I use a Lee .003 undersize sizing die in a separate single stage press. I removed the decapping pin. This die works well and has eliminated the "Glock bulge" issues.
I would expect you could get the Lee die machined to Star threads. Would just need to be careful in setup, that it does not encounter the locator tabs.

Loading Data & Reloading Procedures / Battle of the bulging brass
« Last post by Walking Softly on April 07, 2025, 03:39:19 pm »
I’m looking for some advice,
I’m reloading 9mm on a newer Star, thanks Bruce! And 45 Auto on a Phelps. My range pickup brass in both calibers sometimes has a ‘Glock bulge’ at the base. The brass runs through my presses without any trouble but hangs up in tight chambers.

I’m looking for a on-press solution to eliminate the bulge.
  I’ve already readjusted my sizing die down to contact the shell plate.
  Can I have the sizing die ground down?
  Does anyone use an undersize die, that can be threaded onto a star?
  Does anyone use a Factory crimp die on their Star?

What do you experienced loaders recommend?

Thank you!
