Im sure its been discussed, had a rockchucker for over 20 yrs and wanted to speed up my 45acp loading time.went with rcbs turret. Did i set something up wrong? Primers are flipping over at times, and the primer holder drags on the shell holder if i push the arm all the way till it stops.cant seem to find the correct way to adjust it so the primer holder does not contact the shell holder
Any help is appreciated
 
I had this problem too. There is no adjustment.

I fixed mine by making sure the "APF primer Plug" was centered in the shellholder. In my case, I could push the "Primer Transfer Bar" too far into the slot in the ram. I used hot glue and a strip of a credit card to make the slot a little more shallow. Since I did this, priming on the press has been extremely dependable.

The InlineFabrication.com handle and mount made it much easier to seat the primer in a tight primer pocket. You might want to consider that upgrade too in time.
