I doubt that you're an idiot - there might be something broken, worn out, or not assembled correctly, and because you don't have experience with that press, you have no basis of knowing what might be out of whack.To be honest kind of an idiot...lol.
The good news is that Dillon has a lifetime 100% "No BS" guarantee - if there is something broken or worn out, Dillon will replace it for free to get you back up and running.
Hopefully someone down your way knows their way around a 650 and can get you going again.
