camaross400 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I have used an LNL AP press for the past 3 years, but have now purchased a 1050. I want a dedicated powder measure for each caliber I reload. I am trying to cut down on conversion costs so I want to use the powder measures I have from my LNL on my 1050 instead of purchasing new Dillon measures. Can I do this? Does it work well? Are there any concerns I should think about? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livin_cincy Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I am guessing a case activated measure should work fine. There re are pictures of Red & Green powder measures on blue presses on the internet. Another option might be the LEE AutoDrum with removable inserts. Plenty of YouTube's showing how to use one. Look at FortuneCookie45 for an impartial & critical review. His Reloading bench is a rainbow of colors. The metering inserts are about $4 each. So you get one for each load data you use. The powder measure is $35 maybe. Buy from a retailer not LEE's website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraj Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 It would work. You wouldn't be able to use the fail safe rod on the 1050 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camaross400 Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 I am still waiting for the new toolhead to arrive from Dillon. Once I receive the toolhead, I will set it up and upload pics.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummy425 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I might like to try that. Not a huge fan of the 1050 powder dropper flare. Tenda to stick to case mouths even when cases are lubed.Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
