Just talking to guys at the range today. One of them received an email from someone he knew with pictures. That guy had been loading 45 ACP on a Dillion 1050 (or 650) and got one of those small primer 45 ACP at the priming station. The large primer went off and ignited all the primers in the priming system and basically fragged the press. Too the email was deleted, would liked to have seen it. Dillion replaced everything.

Darm small primer 45 ACP is a hazard for progressive reloading presses.
