Hi my 480 c master keeps going dry, looking for the leak right now. If it is the slave cylinder, can I replace them without dismantling the brake cover?

hi great video, my brakes are sticking on intermittently was that your problem to ?

Thank you, this was very helpful.

Very nice! I have a 480CK and need to do the brakes.

I noticed your printer tube doesn't bounce a lot. Did you adjust it?

My great uncle had a primer tube detonate on him once, though I don't know the model/brand of reloader he was using. It shot the feed rod through his garage ceiling and halfway through the floor of his living room, it is absolutely most certainly possible. He had hearing problems for ages afterward too, it was nearly a full stack of primers and he said it was like an M-80 going off in his face. I've always been leery of automatic primer feed systems that stack the primers up since hearing that, something like my MEC Grabber shotgun reloader that drops a single primer at a time is more my style lol.

I have the (now discontinued) RCBS APS bench priming system, but your review is making me seriously consider getting the Forster unit when I inevitably can no longer get the priming strips for it. Your idea to drill out the wood block for the tubes was a nice touch that I'd like to use when I get mine. btw...just one little note about the priming unit built into the Coax press that you may not already know is that the seater is designed with a positive stop that ensures that, no matter how hard you press down on the handle, the primers seat the optimum depth just below flush from the back of the case head. It sounds as if the dedicated priming unit works the same way.

Excellent video, thank you! How long should this job take a professional Case mechanic, just an estimate, thank you, again well done!

I have a 580 C with no breaks. Thanks for the video

Not a Dillon user, but, why not just have a opening in the primer arm so any loose primers will fall through or a cavity where loose primers will fall into the cavity & not be pressed.

I've used a Lee Auto Prime and Lyman E-ZEE Prime. Due to arthritis, I bought the Forster COAX priming tool. According to the literature, it seats primers flat. CCI recommends .002" to .005" deep. I don't think flush is bad however, I emailed Forster about this issue but never got a response. Keep an eye on the primers since they are fed by gravity, you can get jammed up. I like the jaws that hold the case, no shell holder needed and you do get a good feel for seating the primers.

my rcbs bench priming tool is pushing the primers in crooked and smashing the in the brass all kinds of bad ways. I have to get rid of it. the rcbs shell holders let my brass tilt and move around. I am going to try this one. thanks! I didn't even know about it.

Just got 480 LL with no brakes so this will help a lot in tackling this. Thanks

I got a 480ll do you know we're the brake fluid reservoir is

Fantastic will be purchasing one 👍

Thanks my 480e has park break on drve shaft i think i fixed it one time

The 750 primer system has fixed all the mentioned issues

I don't mean to criticize but I would not put my hand in front of of a primer like that. If one goes off it could blow half your finger off.

do you run into many flipped primers? great straight forward video!

Maybe I've been watching too mutch Last Man Standing, but you sound a lot like Tim Allen lol.

Ohhhh! He has primers!

Why not make sure that you are truly saved by Jesus Christ and practice this way. Remorsefully confess with your heart your sins to Jesus Christ who is God and tell Him that you right now are repenting of your sins and you want to be born again of the Spirit from above. Tell Jesus that you are remorsefully sorry for breaking His commandments and that you are begging for forgiveness from Him. Allow His blood from the cross to wash away your sins. After this is done with your heart successfully the Holy Spirit will come to live within you and He will rebuild you from the inside out. Look for signs that you are saved. Things like spreading the good news from Jesus, getting other people saved, a craving for the word of God, reading the Bible, etc… These things are known as a calling and fruit bearing. If you're not bearing fruit then keep doing it. Sometimes it takes time to get saved. Read Matthew chapter 13 from the King James Bible. God bless!!!!!!!

You can use the notch cut in the back of the tool to load your primer tube the same way you used the flip tray. Not really practical but it can be done.

Thinking of buying one

My friend has a 480F LL and has problems with brakes on right side. We opened and we found the brake housing was full of oil. Is it easy to replace those oil seal? Any ideas or advice? Thanks.

i bought a 1985 case loader , i cant get the lid off the master cylinder on either one any special tool needed ?

using a turret press with a priming system along with carbide dies, using a seperate priming tool is a waste of time

how did you remove the dash I need to take mine out of a 580c

what kind of brake fluid did you used

how many hours to replace the brakes?

Damn I thought a chain reaction was caught on video.

Well done, gives me a good idea of what I'm in for.

On replacing the slave cylinders like the right side did you find the spot where the rod goes into the brake casing look like?

me and my son is working on the same thing . we need to know what type of fluid do you uses for the braking syst.?

I use a Lee turret press and I prime, expand the necks and powder without touching the case but one time than I rotate trhe turret and put the bullet in the case. Finally I crimp and done. I only touch the bullet twice. Putting it in the shell holder and taking the finished round out when it's done. It can't get any easier .

Just a note to tell you that I used your idea with the 2x4 block and the RCBS tray and the little cut out. It's been working great. Have you seen the new Primer Tube Loader that just came out from Forster Products? I just received mine today and it works much better than our RCBS loading tray. You should look into it! Thanks again for your excellent idea!

I have a 550 and a 650 and have been loading for 20+!years on the 550. I have seen primers setting on the arm like u described. But with that said I’ve never ever had a detonation of primers. I’m never saying it couldn’t happen. But still good info. Thank you and keep pullin...

I've had my 550 since '88 and I have never had a loose primer ride as you described. I have had a few over the years just get loose and fall to the floor. Even if it does happen and one gets crushed and detonates under the shell plate, I seriously doubt that it would detonate the primers that are in the tube. I know, anything could happen...I could win the Power ball or get struck by a meteor while walking the dogs.

Left lever is for other set of arms in back, lowers on its own weight, when moving left lever it will raise other set of arms. One set raised front cultivator and other lever raised rear cultivator. I have a original front cultivator for a MT.

Great review. I've been hand priming or using the big Redding press and that is tedious and time consuming. I've asked "Santa" for one of these. Let's see if he comes through.

I had an unused primer get stuck in the primer plate on an XL650, it rotated around and got pinched and felt like a poorly lubed case. I unfortunately forced it and set off an entire tube of large rifle primers. It happens. The key is DON'T FORCE IT! If you feel increased effort, stop and find out what is causing it.

Excellent review. Question, can the primer seating depth be adjusted or is it fixed? Thanks in advance.

With all of the CAUTION about the dangers of primer tubes and detonation I am glad I have been using the auto-prime since 1988 (without incident). I got talked into sending the original Lee hand primer back) I now have an RCBS primer tool I do not think I even WANT to prime cases in the press or from a tube.

I have 3 Dillons, an old 450 upgraded, a 550 and a 650. Never in 40 years have I had a primer go off. I'm not in a rush to load. If it doesn't feel right on the seat, don't keep pushing. I think the people that have them go off are in too much of a hurry and not paying attention. I don't believe in seeing how fast you can reload 100 rounds. Just be safe, and enjoy. It's a great hobby.

hey nheninger. iv got some questions about my case and the brakes. hoping you get this and can help me. look forward to hearing from you. thanks

Good review, Thanks! I bought Forster priming tool after seeing this and I'm very satisfied!

Concerning the parking brake. Are you able to adjust the brake by turning the end of the parking brake lever? My lever has been damaged and the end seems to be frozen stuck but appears as if it originally turned to allow for adjustment of the cable.

Thanks for the great demonstration. I' sure glad I bought the RCBS Automatic Priming Tool. The RCBS uses shell holders so it doesn't require setup - just snap the correct shell holder in. Most everyone has a set of shell holders already, so this isn't an additional expense. This is a good tool for sure, I just prefer the RCBS. Thanks again for showing it.

Thanks for the video. Well done.

are these any good for 223 military brass
