The CHP-T Catcher Tray keeps bits of lead extrusions and spent
primers from falling on the press top, into the ram slot, and
on the floor. It works with your CSP-2 Mega Mite or CHP-1
Hydro Press, with the reloading adapter, Corbin PT-50 priming
tool, and any -H type die that extrudes lead to adjust the
bullet or core weight (such as the CSW-1-H, LSWC-1-H, or custom
weight-adjusting pellet swage and paper-patch swage dies.
The .036-in thick steel unit consists of two sections. The
top section has three sides and a bottom with a 1-1/8 inch
diameter hole. Your reloading adapter, primer tool, or
swage die with 1-in 12 pitch threads slips easily through
the hole and screws as usual into the ram, clamping the
tray firmly to the top of the ram guide plate.
The lower section is a four-sided box which holds the
spent primers or extrusions that otherwise would fall to the
top of the press or onto the floor. It keeps the ram free
of debris that might otherwise drop through the ram slot.
The use of the catcher tray also blocks the possible high
velocity expulsion of bits of lead or other core material
which might take place when attempting to swage harder
alloys at high pressures. The bleed holes in the dies
are lower than the sides of the 3-sided upper section,
so that bits of lead blown rapidly from the die holes
harmlessly strike the metal side walls and are instantly
stopped.
The CHP-T catcher tray also can be "hung" on a 7/8-14
threaded draw die used in the top of the S-press or a
standard reloading press, so that the assembly hangs at
an angle. This allows bullets or jackets being drawn to emerge
from the top of the die and roll into the box section.
This makes it faster to draw jackets or bullets since no
time is needed to manually catch and move the emerging
parts.
The steel unit is powder coated with an oil and grease
resistant black finish, and is normally used with the box
portion at the rear of the press, but can be mounted in
either direction (box forward or to the rear). However,
as a safety device to block possible fast expulsion of
hard core extrusions, the open back of the top section
should be facing away from the operator.
Note:
When used with the Corbin 50 BMG primer tool, the adjustment
of the primer seating rod will need to be set .036 inches
higher to make up for the thickness of the metal held
under the primer adapter body. For nearly any other
operation, this makes little or no difference in operation
or setting.
