WARNING/ CAUTION
PRIMERS AND POWDER
• Store primers and powder beyond the reach of
children and away from heat, dampness, open flames
and electrical equipment. Avoid areas where static
electricity is evident.
• DO NOT use primers of unknown identity.
• Dispose of unknown primers in accordance with
applicable regulations.
• Keep primers in the original factory container until
ready to use. Return unused primers to the same
factory packaging for safety and to preserve their
identity. Primer packaging is designed to provide safe
storage.
• DO NOT store primers in bulk. The blast of just a few
hundred primers is sufficient to cause serious injury to
anyone nearby.
• DO NOT force primers. Use care in handling primers.
• DO NOT have more than one can of powder on the
bench at one time. Powder cans should be stored
away from the bench to avoid picking up the wrong
one.
• DO NOT use any powder unless its identity is
positively known. The only positive identification is the
manufacturer's label on the original canister. Discard
all mixed powders and those of uncertain identity.
• If you use a powder measure, replace the lids on both
the powder hopper and powder can after the powder
hopper has been filled.
• When using a powder measure, settle the powder in
the powder hopper before charging any cases. Throw
and check the weight of at least ten charges. This will
assure you that the correct powder charge is being
thrown.
• When you finish a reloading session, pour any
remaining powder back into its original factory
container. This will preserve the identity and shelf life
of the powder.
• DO NOT smoke while reloading.
RECORD KEEPING
• Keep complete records of reloads. Apply a descriptive
label to each box showing the date produced, and the
primer, powder and bullet used. Labels for this
purpose are packed with SPEER bullets.
• Never attempt to guess at the identity of your
ammunition.
Because RCBS has no control over the choice of components, the manner in which they are assembled, the use of this
product, or the firearms in which the resulting ammunition may be used, we assume no responsibility, expressed or
implied, for the use of ammunition reloaded with this product.
USE
The RCBS Bullet Feeder – Rifle has been designed to increase your progressive rifle load rate by ~50% by reducing the
manual operation of placing a bullet onto the case mouth. All parts and adapters are included for you to be able to feed
jacketed bullets.
The Bullet Feeder is designed to work with FMJ, JACKETED, or SEMI JACKETED Hollow Point, Soft Point, and Round
Nose designed bullets ONLY. Cast or swaged LEAD bullets are NOT to be used and will void the Warranty. The lube from
lead bullets deposits on the moving parts and collects dust and dirt, slowing down the function of the Bullet Feeder and
eventually causing the motor to burn out. The deposited lube also does not allow the bullets to be positioned properly for
feeding from the sorting Wheel to the Feed Tube.
The Bullet Feeder is designed to be used on RCBS 5-station progressive presses such as the Pro2000 and Pro2000
Auto. The RCBS Rifle Bullet Feeder feeds and seats most bullets in one station. This allows you to crimp bullets in a
separate operation, if you deem necessary. Shorter cartridges may not completely seat and may require an additional
Seat Die in a subsequent station.
The Bullet Feeder has also been designed to function on progressive presses manufactured by other companies. RCBS
has successfully tested the Bullet Feeder on the following presses: Dillon® RL550B, XL650 and Hornady® Projector™, L-
N-L™AP™. Some of these presses required adapters, sold separately. Dillon presses require an additional powder
measure adapter, sold separately. Dillon presses mounted on Strong Mounts, require an additional mounting system, sold
separately.
The Collator will hold approximately 150+ bullets depending on caliber and bullet weight.
