Loose primer pocket repair
Просмотров 7 тыс.3 года назад
Using an RCBS pocket swager along with a rounded nut to hopefully fix a loose primer pocket. Figured out that having a video "made for kids" disables the comment section. Sorry about that. I would like to hear if this helped anyone or if it's the dumbest thing on youtube. Production was terrible I know. I checked after shooting 6 of the cases and then reloaded them. Primer pockets seemed perfec...

Figured out a way to continue using my kinetic bullet puller after breaking the screw on top. Sorry for the terrible production. Figured out I need to make it "not for kids" in order to allow comments to happen.
For a moment, I thought Denzel Washington was fixing your stove.
Sounds like way too much work. Trash can time
That’s exactly what I do to resize my small primer pockets. I use the large pocket swage to resize then use the small one to open it back up.
Brilliant idea.
If you have access or a buddy with a lathe you could customize the insert (bolt) for a particular round, I only load 223 so that would be perfect. Thanks again
The camera work a little chaotic but the idea and execution was perfect. I’ve been using the ball bearing and it’s hit and miss😂 but that’s a simple and repeatable way of saving good brass. Thanks for your time and effort.
would you be willing to make another video? i am putting together a sheet of helpful reloading tips and tricks and would like to put this in it. GREAT idea man
I've thought about it. I need to clean off my desk still =P. I have a phone holder but it's a little low but maybe I can put it on a stand so I don't need to move it. Thanks for reminding me.
“I need to get a camera stand here”. Boy that’s an understatement!
Actually I also said it's the worst video ever hahahha. You're welcome to quote it and call it an understatement also ;) You're also welcome to post your video here.
If you were using a sizing die for the cartridge, did you find that you were setting the shoulder back too far by over camming the press?
So far no I don't think so. That would depend on the specific round going into a specific gun. My 1903A3 shoots them great but I have read to adjust the sizing die out until you feel the feedback when you chamber then you know the datum is touching the chamber and that should help with accuracy. I haven't done that with any of my rifles yet.
rereading your question I'm wondering if you were thinking I was using a sizing die for this video. It is the rcbs pocket swager. I just swapped the swagger for a rounded bolt head. Then the inside of the swagger pushes the inside of the flash hole area and the bolt pushes against the outside so I think it shrinks it at both ends. This is why I then need to swage it again to make it perfect.
Great idea, it was not a bad video at all actually a good video with all the camera action. Thanks
Thank you, that's very generous. So far I haven't had to redo any of the brass I did. I tossed a few before googling. The necks will probably break before I need to toss for loose primer pockets.
@@MrGeoffois I’m having a lot of problems with double and triple taps from my rem 223 ammo and I think it is from loose primer pockets. My powder load is right within mid range of Hornady manual, I use a Dillion 650 press. Treated the pockets with Lyman brass prep station. Order a primer go no go gauge to see if they are within specs. Bad parts is that I loaded about 500 rounds before I noticed the problem. I did test the load before starting the run this winter, oh well another winter project. Any suggestions?
What size hex screw did you use?
I'll have to check. It was just what was laying in my nut and bolt box. I was going to goto the hardware store and get something and happen to have this. I imagine anything with a small enough hex hole so as only have the rounded section hit the edge of the primer pocket. Mine almost looks too big but it worked.
Hex size is 4.47mm, I just set the caliper to mm but it's probably standard. Length tip to tip is 13.52mm, thread tip to tip 5.8mm, head edge to edge is 13.41mm. Anything rounded will probably work but I was concerned the kind with no allen hole would only be the type with those locking squares next to the thread and would focus too much pressure onto the top of the cylinder thing with the hole but it's probably fine too.
@@MrGeoffois Thank you!
A great idea. thank you
So far I've shot them twice and they are still snug. I hope others can give it a 'shot'
I was able to get a piece of brass that chambered fine but blew a primer and those pockets are usually just gone. This method was even able to fix that one. It's possible it blew a primer because it was just a loose fit.
We have a 1953 O'Keefe & Merritt stove with a grillevater. The pilot light will not light. When I push in the red reset button and turn on the gas, it will ignite. When I let off the button, the gas goes out and the pilot is not lit. Any suggestions?
I think it's the thermostatic switch. The button lets the gas flow but when you like the pilot there is the tip of a wire/thermometer which should get hot with the pilot light then allow gas to continue to flow to the pilot. If it's broken or too dirty at the tip then it won't let gas to flow. When I pulled out my friend's I was able to clean the tip then it worked. Do you see a copper looking wire flow all the way to the pilot light?
@@MrGeoffois Hi, getting back to you.........yes, there is a copper looking wire flow to the pilot light. I unhooked the thermocoupler, cleaned it with steel wool, but still no gas to the pilot. Any suggesstions?
I have a 50's Merrit O"Keefe stove, the broiler was working great then one day he pilot light went out on the broiler, I relight the pilot light and now the burner is not lighting.. It is hard to tell in the video what you are doing. Can I contact you or you repair man to get better information?
Hi, I would be happy to help you. If you were near by me I could come over. I'm in Pasadena. When their thermostatic sensors get build up sometimes that causes them to shut off the gas to the pilot in case your broiler goes out again. You can clean them off with some steel wool but it sounds like that is working fine now. If yours has those 2 pilots that ignite the 4 burners on top the tubes needs to sit in just right to carry the gas. Or are you talking about the burner for the broiler? Are you able to see that the pilot is on while you try to ignite the broiler burner? I think there is a reset switch inside on the side somewhere.
I copied this from a google search. I can't remember where the reset switch was so maybe it's in the back like this guy says "To turn on the stove, once the pilot is lit (which is accessed through the broiler area in the back) then lift the metal stove top off and look in the back for a mechanism with a large button on it. You must turn the temperature knob for the oven to the on position, maybe around 350 would be good, and then push the button in. It should start up right away. You can call the gas company as well and they will come out for free and start it for you. :) That's how I learned this!"
Can you please share your repair person's contact info? I am in Corona and need O'keefe and Merritt oven repair. Please and thank you!!
@@krystalsossaman7073 Sorry just saw this. Do you still need the repair man? AAA appliance service 3102768592. The receipt has a few numbers so let me know if that one didn't work.
Yes, nobody should go to war for the sake of killing other people.
Human sacrifices to sacrifice other humans😔
I love twin peaks but I disagree with those who go to war to kill people....
