Title: Hello from a new Star Owner
Post by: dustdevil on November 07, 2010, 03:14:39 pm

I just got a hold of a Star Universal.  It is one little amazing machine.  I also own a Dillon 650 and a Hornady L-N-L Progressive.  I have not loaded anything with the Star yet but from the feel of it wow.  Very smooth operation.  I do have a couple questions.  It came with a Hulme case feeder and I am wondering if there are any instructions available for setup?  I tried a search and followed the link to the pictures but it is a dead link.  What I would like to do is set up the Star for 9mm.  It came with the dies etc but I am not sure what kind of top plate to use.  Thank you everyone for your time and a great site.

Gday dust dog,

If you go back to the home page of this site(not the forum, the star reloader site) and have a look around then you will find the instructions for setting up your star.
Cheers   ;)

Hulme made a caliber specific top plate for 9mm.   It's easy to recognize, it is stamped 9M on top.

Here is a link to an old thread that shows pictures of the top plates for 9mm and .380.

Thanks for the replies.  I have the M3 plate and a 30C plate.  I will have to either find, make, or modify a plate for 9mm.
