My question is do you have any lube on your cases Your shell plate moves a lot, I thought it was going to break

@@TimLawrence-l3o Yes. I used one shot and it did feel kind of tuff. Now I use one shot the day before and again before I load after it has dried. BIG difference now it runs alot smoother like it should. One shot is kind of funny! If you don't use enough or properly it just doesn't work but when it works its the best. Thank you for commenting

I'm loving my X-10. I'm currently doing 9mm and 300blk, both hi-tek coated bullets. Soon to be doing .223 as well. I'm glad I waited for this press to come out and didn't settle on a 5 station that didn't have the ability to swage in line.

Hi Mark, good video. I have had a Dillon 650 for a couple of decades and a 550 for many years before that and love them, but am considering getting an X10 just for my 9mm reloading. I have seen good comments and BAD comments on the X10, so I am a little concerned about spending $1K on the press and then being dissatisfied. Have you had problems with parts breaking? Are you really satisfied with the press? Thanks, Pat

Sounds like you have plenty of reloading experience so you shouldn't have problems. 9mm is great with the bullet feeder FA has great support and I got mine on a Optics Planet 10% off day

It doesn't matter what primers I run in my X-10, the press will constantly lock up. Primers crushed locking the press. I've tried CCI, Winchester, Federal and they all lock this press. FA has replaced the primer assembly twice but still has the same problem. 'POS'

I had that problem when I first started. I used LPP on 44 magnum. My shell plate was not balanced very well ie hold down locatoins, centering cases, setting hold downs to only touch the shell plate not maufacturers recommendations. As I started to get my dies properly set and tried different hold downs over the priming station I found my primers in the insertion of the primer was leaving debris in the assembly sometimes. I found problems like these went away for the most part. I still have problems occasionally but I plan on trying the powder relocation and a hold down in station 8 as I am using a powder check in that station. That is if FA ever releases it!! I did use a hold down in 8 before and that's when I learned how critical it is to balance the shell plate with hold downs. Then with time and trials, again, my primer problems started to go away... For the most part. I hpoe this is helpful and I am a novice reloader still learning and making plenty of mistakes

Hi Mark, what name brand primers are you running in your X-10. I've tried Winchester SPP & SRP but they lockup my X-10.

In the beginning I used Remington magnum on my 44 mag. problems went away when I started using hold or centering dies. I'm using ginex small rifle primers On my 223 and problems are ridiculous they seem to be too tall and or go in crooked over 15% of the time. I had few problems with the ginex small pistol on my 9s n 40s. And few problems wit Federal large rifle on my 762x39. I plan on getting some name brand small rifle and trying again the 223

Also I've noticed locking up accours when the primers don't seat perfect in the primer assembly. That's why I don't use the plastic bumper, having to take it off every time it locks up. I also started using a small piece of hard foam in its place, very low profile to push the base into place but not against the case body. It just sets in place and wears out easy but is effective but not with 223 small rifle primers, they seem to be too tall for the mechanism they look pretty chewed when they run without being set into a case

Don’t listen to the negative comments some people make about the X-10. I’m new to reloading and the X-10 is my first progressive press. Truth be told, there are some quirks that you may have to address but the press works.
