Pete, My 2 cents worth is be careful and dont force a primer in. I did and i had just put in 100 primers in the tube.. Man BOOM!!! Blew up all 100 primers. Parts went every where--ears rang for 2 days. Lucky I didn't get injured.. Good Luck man Leroy

Dave, Yes I know I can order a mandrel but the mandral is not the problem the moonsetter tool wont work with your clips because of the way the tips are made. I used starline, winchester ap, and find the best fit with remmington nickle which is a pain to reload ..I have 38super comp brass also and that dosent even fit any moon clips that i have and i have smith..tk clips I mailed your clips back today that you sent me for free and thank you again for being so kind and let me try them first. I dont know what other shooters are using that they say fit so well but I not having much luck at all. Leroy

Dave You were kind enough to send me a couple to try out and i need to return them I was disappointed that the ones for the 8 shot 627 wont work with the moon setter tool.. I still have the best fit with smith clips and they still arent great. I will mail them back to you tomorrow man i wish they did work it is almost impossable to find a good clip for the 38 super. Leroy

Tom, You go to Sturgis on the HOG.Man i rode there twice from Virginia man what a ride and what a week. Have fun man Leroy

I wish some one would make a good moon clip for the 38 super revolvers. I have tried the tk ones and the ones from Heath and neither are better than the smith and wesson clips.. all are very expensive. Leroy

Firewalker, Having fun is what it is all about to me. My scores aren't that great but I always leave the range smiling. A friend of mine always says a bad day at the range is more fun than a good day at work. Leroy

I am just a Marksman class shooter but, If Kevin would give points for shooting the sticks off of the mover an Hinton and Bluefield, I could easily move up... Leroy

Just one Question. What ever happened to common since?--sence--cents--sents.. da%#.. CANT SPELL IT BUT YOU GET THE POINT RIGHT? Think about it. Leroy

I called them the other day and they said they have an intor offer for 595.00 still a lot but it does look like a nice thingy... leroy

I went to Brownells web sight and typed in gold in the search box and followed the link to the s&w sights.. I don't think this sight is in the catalog and if you can get Brownells wholesale price it will save you some money. Leroy

I got my gold bead friday and tried it out this week end.. Looks pretty good it was a big adjustment for me from the red optic.. I think the gold bead is worth the price.. I got teh SDM with the rounded nose.. Leroy

Has anyone tried the new GSI bullet loader for the dillon presses yet? It is asvertised in the new Dillon mag. on page 22 Leroy

I have to agree. I bought my Dillon xl650 from Brian about 18 months ago and he treated me great. My only regret is, that i could not afford a 1050... Leroy

Thanks guys.. I found in on the web sight and it is one the way!!!! Leroy

I am looking for a Gold bead front sight for a revolver..686 PC model 38 super with the interchangeable front sight. Does anyone know who sells these.. I have tried to contact smith and wesson but so far no reply. Thanks, Leroy

I have a 686 and 627 38 super and i use the tk custom straightner and save a lot of clips.. the clips for 38 super are very expensive so it paid for it self already. Leroy

Tom, Which 38 super did you get? I have the 686 6 shot and i would love to find an 8 shot one. I have a lot of trouble with the moon clips for the 6 shot can't seem to find any that will keep the bullets straight and not wobble.. I love the gun but it burns me up that there are no relly good moon clips out there that work like the ones i have seen for the 8 shot. If you have any luck finding any let me know.. I did get a new mailing from brownells that have both the 8 shot and 6 shot clips for the 38 super but i havent ordered any yet they are a lot thinner then the ones from tk customs., so i dont kown how they will work. I have trouble understanding why these cost so much more than ones for a 45 acp... Have fun with the 38 super they are a lot of fun. Leroy

Thanks for all the replies. Yes I was using Federal primers.. I have loaded around 15 k on this machine with no problems like this.. I dont really care for the way the 650 is set up in the primer system. I usually remove it and clean it every 500 rounds it is a pain .Sometime i wish I had just gotten a 550b instead. the case feeder is nice but it jams up a lot too so with all the jams, a 550b is probably just as fast. Dillion was very nice and has my replacement parts on the way I hope i dont run out of ammo befroe it gets here. Thanks again for all the replies and have a Happy New Year and shoot and load safe and keep those saftey glassed on .. PS> i am considering wearing ear plugs while loading too. Boom!!! man it was loud!!!!! Leroy

Hello This is a safety issue. I have a Dillion xl650 and was loading and a primer exploded setting off all the primers in the Magizine shield must have been at least 90 in the shield. BOOM!!!!!!!!! and destoryed a plot of parts. Lucky i wasnt hurt but guys be careful loading and wear eye protection all the time if i hadn't been wearing safety glassed it would have been nasty.Load and shoot safe. I dont' think it is a problem with Dillion presses, just an isolated experience. Leroy

I put the SG #3 on my choke tubes and shot 50 rounds yesterday and the choke tube never moved.. It works fine on my Benelli SportII. Thanks for it info. Leroy

I have a Benelli Sport II and I have trouble with the choke tubes working loose. Will the slide glide really help keeping them tight.. Leroy

The small set screw in the side of the frame is held in by a little drop of blue loc tite and and grips ride against it too. i have never had one back out. Leroy

Welcome to VA man. Roanoke va has a nice ipsc club. RRRC...

Hello I have and old bushnell holo sight and i really love it.. It has started to fade in the top area of the sight. Does any one know know or where to get this fixed? Leroy

I had some trouble also and i just went to federal primers and solved the problem I had trigger jobs done on my 686 and 66 and my gunsmith puts a small set screw on the side of the frame to retain the mainspring screw, and keep it from backing out. I havent seen many gunsmiths do this. I think it is a great idea. Leroy
