Star Reloaders / Re: Backwards Primers

« on: August 24, 2017, 01:03:41 pm »

Thank you both for the reply. I'll take a look again tonight. Some thing else I suspect is the batch of primers. It's an old batch from 2007 and it's when primers were hard to find. Out of the box of 1000 I had 2 small boxes that had a couple small pistol primers in there. I of course didn't notice until it didn't press fit into the brass.

I'm not saying this is my problem but it could be part of the issue.

I also noticed that when I changed out the slide assembly I was able to go 200 loaded with no failures.

To my knowledge it's original Star parts. Plus it worked for years with no issue. Tonight I'm going to load up some 9mm with the small pistol rig and try to narrow down what parts are not working.

Star Reloaders / Backwards Primers

Hi all, I've been using my Star press for years and never had this problem but recently about every 30-40 rounds I get a missing primer then a backwards primer. I've taken the priming system apart and cleaned but didn't find anything obvious. Anyone have any ideas why this would happen?

Jsizemore I didn't get the PM.

It's odd that there aren't many powder slides out there for sale. Can't seem to find any anywhere.

Star Reloaders / Advice on .380 and 38 press

« on: October 30, 2011, 12:59:54 pm »

I have a 45 universal press and I would like to be able to load 38/357 and .380.

What would I need parts wise to convert over?

Would I be better off somehow finding a .380 complete press and just getting a tool head in 38?

Loading Data & Reloading Procedures / Re: .45 ACP Load Data

« on: February 19, 2011, 11:13:19 am »

Good info but I don't have a 1911 (yet) what I shoot is a springfield XD 45 with the 4 in brl. My question is about these new bullet heads I just got and there doesn't seem to be any load data on them. There is plenty of info on a 200 gr Lead SWC but not a RNFP.
