I know why you bumped this thread. To make a point regarding progressive vs single stage. My mistakes were human error, not mechanical. Had I been on a Dillon 650 with a low powder warning sensor, the squibs wouldn't have happened and we wouldn't be here today rehashing this story.

Love ya man
Nope... I was actually looking for any thread that said "Squib Boy"... and this was the first that turned up. Now, for anyone who wants to know the WHOLE story...... start reading the archives. It's actually some very very stuff!!

When was new, he was called "Pino".... which he still gets called by on occasion.... Then, one day... He made the mortal error of telling us that he had a couple of Squib rounds. Hence... "Squib boy" which morphed into "Squib King"... Eventually... he was drawing monkeys on packages that he shipped out to us, packages that quite frankly... given his sense of humor...some of us were frightened to open without plunging them into a bucket of water first. Hence ... became "the Monkey". In his present iteration... it is now "Mischiveous Monkey". But he'll always be "" . The ribbing is going to happen, but it is almost always good natured. And that's what Cotep is!

Love ya too!
