Pretty sure Ranch Dog mentioned that in another topic within the last couple of days. Pretty sure he said keep the tubes full.

I'm guessing you might benefit from the multi-tube feeder upgrade.

Mine works perfectly even down to the last case. I used whatever tubes came with the .223 kit. Did you use the riser block on the case slider block?

i did use the riser BUT my loader was originally for a 40 S&W That why i was wondering about the tube size-- If you had a chance you could measure yours so i could compare them !!

Sure.

I.D. is about .525"
O.D. is about .570"

These measurements could be plus or minus a few thou because the tubes are easy to deform when measuring them and they are not perfectly round.
