About a month ago I asked for ideas on how to make this chute: http://castboolits.gunloads.com/show...e+press+sizing
jmorris had the one I wanted to copy.
After fire less than success attempts this a.m. I got mine working. Seems the critical part is the angle and distance the end is from the ram. I have about 80% success before a bullet hangs up at the entrance to the sizing die.
Couple of things to notice: the chute assembly is held on my C-clamps. Turns out this is a good thing as when I send two bullets down the ramp (brain fade) the ram will move the chute. If it were mounted rigidly something would break. The C-clamps allow a bit of movement so all I have to do is reposition.
I'm planning on going to those big (not giant) clamps you see at the box stores.
