« on: February 11, 2014, 01:13:25 am »

Anyone have a source for the compression spring for the Hulme Case Feeder ?
I looked through Mc Master Carr catalog but didn,t find anything that would work
as a replacement.

Star Lubricator & Resizers / Re: When did Star add the Jam Nut to the Lubesizer

« on: February 06, 2014, 08:24:11 pm »

I don't know if this will help establish when the Jam nut was incorporated,but I purchased
Two Sizers from Star in 1956 and they have no jam nut.

Star Reloaders / Re: Primer Slide Angle Lever

I see no problem with welding a hard face weld on the angle lever and then grinding to proper dimensions, A skilled welder could do this.
You also may want to check the adjustment of the angle lever cam # 49/49U which can be bent in or out to align the primer slide so that it
doesn't bottom out with force against the coluum shaft causeing extra wear on the angle lever cam.
If You decide that a new angle lever is needed I have a new one that I could spare, If so, leave me a PM on this forum or send me an Email.

Star Reloaders / Re: Any "Gotchas" about doing 9mm in a Progressive?

« on: July 07, 2013, 08:49:10 pm »

Rolling Stone

Good Show, Happy to read that You were able to load 9mm on your modified machine. I did basicly the same on a universal to load 40 S&W and it worked
out very well. I had to slightly bevel the case openings on the shell plate with a Dremal Grinder to accomadate the case, Turned down and re threaded
RCBS dies and then modify the last station to kick out the finished cartridge. Now loading excellent re-loads without any Bobbels.

Big Earl
When useing a taper crimp die You must have a solid plug that fills the hole in the last station. You may want to go
to the "for sale" section on this forum and and inquire if anyone has one for sale. they can also be manufactured by a
machinist. and we are very fortunate to have some top notch machinist as members.
