Those thinking about using zip ties, please consider this.
The primer chute/trough attachment for Pro 1000 was much more flexible and tolerated movement well. The primer chute/trough for SPP/Pro 6000 is very RIGID and won't flex like the one for Pro 1000 as they are very DIFFERENT and won't flex.
I too at first considered using zip ties but when I realized the stiffer and more rigid construction of primer chute/trough for SPP/Pro 6000, I decided against it and instead moved to more "gentler" solution of using sleeve roller for pin that was loose to spin around the pin and just apply slight more pressure. As to using zip ties inside the groove ring, it's the drop down of pin/roller that causes the shaking of tray and if you decrease the drop, the amount of agitation of tray will be less.
Of course, it's your press and you can do whatever you wish. YMMV.
BTW, Calvin emailed and said Lee Precision is testing thicker diameter pin for the primer chute/trough and will continue to work on the issue at hand. I will keep you posted of any further progress/updates - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.p...-oal-consistency.911743/page-16#post-12485579
