It's supposed to rain on Saturday. So hopefully that will give me a decent amount of uninterrupted time to get something done. Last night I also ordered a 1000 more 124gr MPR Nukes from RMR.

I didn't have much time after work today tondo much of anything I wanted to do. I did manage to load 30 rounds of 9mm though. I had one problem that was an obvious me problem that was easy to fix with the bullet feeder. Like I said my fault. Discovered that I noticed an unnerving sound...

That's pretty cool. I think that's a little more involved than I want to be though. I would imagine printing some of those parts took 24+ hours. The only thing it's missing is a motor to run the operating handle. If I can keep mine doing what it did last night I would be happy. I'm sure...

I gave up on my 3d printer about a year ago. I made some neat stuff I copied off the internet. I never was good.at designing my own stuff. There was nothing like a 24 hour print failing several hours after it started. My problems come down to time and one new health issue. I recently...

I will admit the older I get the more short on patience I get. Life is busy with work, family and life. I am easily frustrated and that is probably my downside. I constantly have have things to do and feel like there just isn't enough time in the day. I think the reason I thought a...

It's been a long day. I got home from work and decided to remove the shell plate. I wanted to make sure it was clean and unobstructed. There was a bit of powder and two or three primers wedged into the primer area. I cleaned all of that up and put the shell plate and the plastic guide ring...

I will re read this and take some pictures tomorrow after work. It seems like I can test each individual process and get good results. If load a few cases and bullets and try to run it as it should normally be operated from start to finish I get about 3 loaded rounds before something goes...

I'm back to being pissed off at this thing again. I'm seriously trying to understand why it won't just work. I got about 20 rounds loaded in about 2 hours. The priming system is doing weird things again. The flat plastic slider piece that the metal primer piece connects to is randomly...

I'm thinking my Google search was trash but luckily it just good enough to spark a fire in my mind. I'm also pretty sure I was interrupted very soon after that video started and didn't watch much of it. More creative thinking got my powder drum mounted without much room to spare. The breach...

I didn't notice if it was an "M" it came with the 3 die set of breach lock dies. I did notice it flares the case mouth slightly different than my other set of lee 9mm dies. I also use a stand alone taper crimp die. I will hopefully have a little bit of time tomorrow after work to run some...

I really appreciate you guys helping me out. So I ran the auto drum cycling the same primed case for what seemed like forever. I removed the decapping/Resizing die and Probably ran the case 25-35 times . I ran it through the expanding/charging station and through the powder cop just to watch...

So it was just a Google search on the lee powder drum itself. I was a bit confused at first and the instructions/directions are not so good. No one ever accused me of being a genius. I don't want to be that guy that always asks for help especially when the answer should be something that...

So I'm probably really going to sound stupid now. I took some time to look over the new setup. As I mentioned lack of instructions which I probably wouldn't or couldn't read (I just look at the pictures). I figured out how to install the autodrum. If it's missing any parts it's the return...

It's most likely me but I spent a lot of hours setting it up. Dry running each step except the powder station. I think something is missing for the autodrum. Lack of instructions and the powder cop die also in the way. So after all was dialed in minus powder drop I decided to run my funnel in...

Sending this pile back. I don't like it at all.

I'm still waiting for my bullet feeder setup to be delivered. I have managed to build a solid mount though. Because I didn't think properly when i built my bench 5ish years ago I didn't do myself any favors. I made a solid 6"x8"x1/4" steel plate with a 2 in angle iron spacer with another...

Thank you all for the good advice and tips. I've never been in a hurry while loading anything. The reason I'm not as I am chasing accuracy. Life is also so busy I can never seem to catch up. There just aren't enough hours in a day to work, family time, personal time etc. Sunday morning I...

I have been handloading for about 5 years now. I have my first press a lee single stage I bought in the beginning, a rcbs Jr press that belonged to my dad and a lee 4 hole turret press. I seem to like to hand prime my cases in batches as well be OCD about everything else from weighing my...

Yesterday I got about a 3 hour break in between rain storms. Hitting the out door public range after Bubba gets out of bed in the morning is a little sketchy. I generally get there before sunrise and leave before the really special people show up. Being I only wanted to shoot 20 rounds of...

I will keep my eyes open for some long shot or blue dot. I was looking local for another powder for a while and as soon as I ordered it and paid HAZMAT fees it shows up in two local stores before its even been shipped to me. LOL thats the way it goes. A friend of mine sent me a picture out...
