Hi. I have a Lee Challenger press that I'm pretty happy with, except that the primer arm (the part that fits into the ram and that seats the primer) frequently pops out and falls to the floor when I'm depriming and sizing cases. So I figured I'd just keep the primer arm out, since I don't usually use the press for priming anyway (I use a hand held Auto Prime). But with the primer arm removed, the spent primers fall onto the floor instead of going into the spent primer tube. :banghead: That is, the primer arm serves to direct the spent primers in the right direction.
I have this problem with both the large and small primer arms. I've cleaned everything up, but it still happens. And it happens with both calibers I'm currently loading (8 x 57 and .243).
Before I call Lee, anybody else experiencing this? Any clever workarounds?
Thanks
