Hoping this video saves someone in the future by getting the word out (even at my own expense). Live wad cutters can be tricky to find if you have a ton of brass to sort.
That's why you need to visually inspect your brass as you sort.
You cannot blame Lee Precision for someones negligence.
Being stupid truly does hurt. Maybe that is why they say don't drink or smoke dope while loading
Maybe the video should be titled "PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL WHEN RELOADING ON ANY PRESS"
Happy to hear that you or anyone else was not hurt.
This is a perfect example if Alec Baldwin started reloading.
Great image there. Lmao
Ha
This was your flaw - you had a live round in the pile of "empties"
I’m not sure how this is a “major flaw” for Lee to address. Picking up range brass in one thing, I personally look at the brass before I clean them and after I wet tumble. At some point the operator needs to be aware of safety concerns
I agree. The operator has responsibility when using this press. I just wanted to point out what happened to me and hopefully save someone down the road.
Always pay attention, slow down, and reload without distractions.
@@boyerfarm2973 Always wear Eye protection when reloading especially when seating primers.
Yeah, I’m not sure that’s a flaw, sounds like, operator error, I don’t mix “ live “ rounds, with empty brass
@@ghq113 that's what the person who explodes their press while decapping says 😂
This is not a flaw, this would potentially reduce stupid people who would accidentally throw loaded 38 SP wad cutters in with their empty brass without ever paying attention to anything before or during the process.
Exactly
If you can’t feel that’s a loaded cartridge, you shouldn’t be loading ammo
I must agree with you hole hearted.
100% operator error!
I’m so glad you only have 19 subscribers
19 only that.....ok!!!🤔🥴😑😔😴
Over time, I've learned to just slow down till my brain can put the brakes on. I'm reloading...I'm already winning, I seldom go full speed at anything, so I can watch more carefully.
only a jackass blindly just throws brass in a progressive machine & starts to wildly operate handle at breakneck speeds.......slow down & be responsible, eliminate this situation! !
Why would you have a live round with the brass your deprimming?
wasn't gonna comment on this video cause everyone who did comment hit the nail on the head already this was not equipment error this was definitely operator error ALWAYS INSPECT YOUR BRASS PRIOR TO RELOADING !! that loaded round should never have been there always inspect before any loading operations especially when picking up range brass it's good to alert people of a potential problem but this should never happen to anyone practicing proper reloading procedures !
This is great advice for those that are challenged in life. Pay attention and do not put loaded rounds mixed in with your empty brass when you do not bother to inspect or pay attention to what you are doing while reloading. Other videos will cover how water jugs will also fit into your gas tank, super glue will fit in your eye, and aerosol Gorilla glue is not hair spray. Hard not to be a bit salty.... ;-)
You sound like an annoying dickhead.
If you watched the video, this is a tip for people who bring home brass from the range. No one is adding ready bullets to their decapping pile on purpose.
The only warning I see is that nobody should be around when you reload or listen to you because you definitely don't use your head. You're running that thing like you're flying high.
Don't deprime loaded brass. Don't Blame Lee for your mistakes!
me: kaplowwww
her: honey is everything ok
me: ya sure something just fell off the shelf everything's OK
Good catch and thanks for the warning! This could apply to any press with a case collator or feeder.
A great example of why reloaders should be very diligent and attentive!
I’ve found shaking the colater as you pour brass in works every time. Pitching a hand full on top, and than starting to shake it will guarantee backwards brass every single time. Shake, and add whilst you are shaking. You will be set brother.
And side note… don’t put live stuff In with your empties? Very curious as to how the heck that happened.
Geeez. I never thought of that. Thanks for the heads up.
Thank you!
Yeah, this is 100% a YOU problem an not a Lee APP problem.
There is no way that hitting a live primer with a decapping pin would set it off. Don't believe me, take an empty case w a live primer and try it. It is one thing to make an assertion about an issue but one needs to actually try these things to make sure they are even possible. It takes a surprising amount of force to set a primer off.
Why don't You do the experiment for the rest of us and then post your results, instead of running your mouth???!!! We will be waiting.🙃
@@katashi222 A. I am not the one making the claim that such is dangerous. Making claims without any proof at all is disingenuous at best.
B. I have hit a firing pin with a nail and a hammer so I know exactly what happens and how much force is required ... and it is nowhere close to what would be imparted in a reloading press.
@@ExpatriotSilencers Yeh whatever!!!
theres an old saying YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID
Fair warning and a warning that bears repeating.
Darwin at work
Why would you mix empty case with live bullet? This is stupid 😂😂😂
I see the same thing that happens to me. Not the issue you had, but alignment of the cases as the mechanism positions the case so it can be de-primed. Mine will work great, and then suddenly for no reason I can tell, it will misalign a case- either leaving it short or pushing it past the center so the pin can knock the primer out. Gets frustrating sometimes, well actually a lot of times. I have a 3d printed case feeder that can serve up more cases than I can de-prime. Most of the time it's because I have a jam to clear. Not giving up though. It is still much faster than other methods of de-priming. Note: I mainly use it for de-priming 9mm and some 300AAC cases.
Rules:
1. Don’t be an idiot.
Why would you put a live round in your depriming station??
Good catch! That is a pretty cool set up. I just deprime with an old Lee press. This looks so much easier.
Thanks for the heads up.
Good to know!
Thanks for sharing
Ya don't put live rounds into it
Are we in a race 😜
