Title: Last Station Dimensions
Post by: varmintpopper on May 19, 2012, 10:11:26 pm

Measured the width of the opening where the Case rim exits the Base ( with a Kicker ) on the taper crimp station,  4 out of 5 openings measured .555 inch the other one measured .495 , Found this after setting up to load .44 mag,, Guess what ,the rim on a 44 mag is wider than the opening. Anyone have this problem before ??  I guess I can modify by grinding the opening larger, or swap the head to another base with a larger opening.

Good Shooting

Greetings,

Not sure why one press has a smaller opening? However, since you have three other machines as a reference, I would be very tempted to get my small files out and "make the upgrade".

I do have a machine that will not accept a 45 AR case. The other machines work fine.

Cheers,

Dave

Perhaps I will Dremil it to fit a .44 Mag instead of swapping heads to another base.
