Dillon press primer pickup tubes

#1 Post by Ovenpaa »

Can anyone tell me if the little plastic ends on the primer tube magazines for the Dillon 650 and 1050 are the same dimensionally? The primer tubes (magazine)on the RL-1000 appear to be designed for slightly different ends which I cannot source and mine are worn out in that the primers either fall out or there is so much resistance that the do not feed despite the follower being fitted and in good condition.

I could always add some more weight to the follower however I am still going to struggle to find end caps so the best way forward is to modify/rebuild the primer station to accept the later type primer magazine tubes and make my life a lot easier unless someone has any alternative suggestions.

Anyone?
