I know...I know...call Dillon. I will tomorrow.
Just did a caliber change from 45ACP to 38-40. Relevance being, nothing changed with the primer handling. I have a lot of experience with the 650 with lots of calibers.
It seems as though the shell plate is not advancing 100% to the next position and the primer is being tilted slightly making insertion go bad wrong. Primer is turning 90 degrees and being crushed about 1 of every 5 or 6 cases. Sometimes it will load 20 in a row with no problem, then crush 3 in a row. No rhyme or reason to the malfunction timing.
The plate is settled on the ball bearing but the primer punch(or seater) is not centered on the shell plate opening.
No problem with the prior loading of 45ACP.
Almost seems as though the plate is machined crooked.
Frustration is running high!!!!!!!
