Pro 4000 Case Slider spits out brass??

Post by kydave19 »

Anyone have a solution to the occasional instance where the slider hangs up a tiny bit on the down stroke, then snaps forward shooting the new case across the bench (and occasionally knocking over a case full of powder on the 180 degree side of the shell plate)?

I don't have a P4K but my APP did the same thing. Polishing the parts and adding graphite helped but the real fix was new parts from Lee. The APP was pretty new and they sent the parts for free. I have an entire topic here somewhere.

Fast forward to about 1:50 on this video, I had the same issue and feel this will work on the 4000 as well as the 6000.
