FUNCTION AND ADJUSTMENT

The following is a detailed description of the operation and 
adjustment of the 366 Auto Reloading Press . This press has 
been pre-adjusted at the factory for Remington STS cases, but 
every person has a preference about how the finished product 
should look, so some changes might be necessary . 

The reloader 

should begin by advancing a single shell through each station 
to familiarize himself with the operation and adjustment of 
each position.

 The illustrated discussion which follows shows 

the 366 with all eight stations filled . Since your first shell will be 
the only one in the loader, 

be sure the shot and powder slides 

are off at the beginning of the sequence.

Sort your shot shells by brand and type . Refer to the loading 
manuals provided for recommended loads for your shot shells .
