    Old Lyman Press problem

    I have two Spar-T's. My first is the the one the OP is showing but has a (cracked) primer cup that I bought around 1977. The second I pick up a slightly used set up on fleebay a few years ago cheap. I agree with others on the pins. The other area to check is make sure there is not a primer stuck...

    reloading bench tips?

    I used cubicle work surfaces with a work bench base. The stuff is hard and easy to clean and heavy. Does not flex at all. Another great bench top is to go to a commercial door company and see if they have any damaged solid wooden doors. I have one on my first bench in my basement.

    Ultrasonic+Citranox=Fail

That said I de-prime, ultrasonic clean, size and the they go in a vibratory for a few hours to make them shinny. I know extra steps. I like running clean brass through my dies.

    Pay it Forward in Reloading

    Ugly brass I have some ugly brass in S&W .40 up for grabs. The reason it's ugly is I forgot about it in my ultrasonic cleaner for about a month. It would take a week or so in my vibrator clean or so. But if someone has a wet tumbler I think they will clean up just fine. I took a polishing wheel...
