Modified Chute with Rollsizer

I had setup the Mark7 autodrive with a 650. However, I changed out the Dillon bucket with an offchute from mikesreloading@yahoo.com. Make a mod to his chute and it works great with many other setups, like the Rollsizer - https://www.rollsizer.com/ JB Weld three super magnetics so I could use the chute on several other equipment setup. The off chute tube was from Range Panda - https://rangepanda.com/collections/dillon-xl650/products/funnel-output-hose-and-clamp However, this can be found on Amazon as dust collection parts/equipment The shield material I got from - https://www.webstaurantstore.com/g/8921/regency-shelving-30-wide-clear-pvc-shelf-liner I used their material to cut and shape for the shield or off chute of the Rollsizer, since without, the brass would bounce enough to not go into the chute. The velcro shield allows me to take it off if I need to use the chute on the 650.

I currently use Mr Bullet and works great and a lot less than GR

For a Dillon Casefeeder upgrade, I probably would use Immortal Arms ™ Case Feeder Upgrade Pro (CFUPRO) - https://immortobot.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=440 I know for my setup, I will be using MA Systems casefeeder (14in) to feed the Rollsizer or Decapper/deprimer units. Both Rollsizer units will outrun the Standard Dillon. Just going more commercial direction equipment. Just not big enough to go bigger than the 14in bowl. The 16in bowl can come with variable speed.

Great pictures of your new and improved bracket. I did see that your motor housing is different from mine. The rear end cap is shaped differently. My motor end cap was what was inferring with the bracket that caused me to add spacers. Your motor housing does not appear to have that problem. Either way, nice job.

My idea for the Rollsizer Decapper at this time was $$. I have thought of something like the Dillon CP2000 setup (minus the trimmer for pistol) and replace the Dillon casefeeder with the MA System either 14in or 16in bowl. Add the Fast and Friendly (fastandfriendlybrass.com) motor drive for depriming and checking the primer pocket swagger. It seems like the FFB system runs faster than Mark7. The idea is to deprime, wet tumble in the cement mixer, minus the steel pins, then use dry crush walnut for the drying process in the mixer again. The walnut would continue the cleaning and polishing process without the hassle of the steel pins. Then run through the Rollsizer to begin the reloading process.

I wonder if someone is working on an autodrive system for the FX10. That would be neat to see.

I had ordered and setup the CasePro100 several years ago and found it worked great to remove the brass bulge. Saw the Rollsizer and liked the speed capability. Ordered one. Went to setup on the bench and found things not aligning right. Contacted the MFG'r and was told it was shipping damage. The delivery company dropped the unit/box. Mfg'r did say try loosing the bracket screws and try to bend the bracket(s) and re-adjust. After checking the brackets for straightness before doing anything, I found one of the brackets was hitting the motor housing causing the misalignment (Shipping damage?? Not). I had to add spacers to one side to move the bracket away from the motor housing for clearance. Due to the added spacers, longer bolts were needed. I used M8 x 1.25 x 35mm. 30mm length would have worked, but the 35mm worked just fine as well. The original length was 25mm. This fixed things up. Now just waiting for the MA System casefeeder to finish the full setup to feed the Rollsizer and the Rollsizer Decapper

Thx for your reply Mike. I have participated in USPSA, ICORE, IDPA for yrs as well. Great fun. However, what have people done with tools as advertised per web forums, websites to fix the chamfer pilot issue. Would using the 45GAP chamber reamer work enough to open up the chamber near the throat, given the chamber SAMMI dimensions that near the throat area, the chamber diameter is less than the beginning opening? ** SAMMI chamber for the 45 tappers from breech face 0.4812 through to 0.4796 and ends at the throat at 0.4740 with chamber depth 0.898 - 0.920, if I read the SAMMI diagram right. It appears S&W cuts the chambers tight near the throat, almost too tight for the Brownells pilots. I just thought it was interesting that the cylinder S&W replaced worked just fine with the chamfer pilots, yet the original as well as other people have had this problem for some time. I do not have access to gage pins, a milling machine, nor tools shop. Just a basic garage gunsmith trying to figure things out with limit resources. My hands are just not as steady as they use to be without the pilot. SAMMI_45ACP_Chamber.pdf

Thx for your reply. The typical home gunsmith or maybe, call me a garage gunsmith, having done some/limited research, buy tools from Brownells to which a lot of people mention then generally are able to gunsmith with no problem. I do understand about gage pins, however, can be very $$ for many others to start. I thought of pin gages as well, but thought I would be able get by with some basic tools to start. As it can be seen in the original post pic, the replacement cylinder from S&W was just fine with the Brownells chamfer pilots and I was easily able to chamfer the chambers. Being so, why would the original factory cylinder have such problem as well as my friend's new 625-8. What I am asking is - what have people done to overcome the 625-8 cyl issue. It appears from other research that this issue has been going on for some time, 2010 the earliest I have seen, yet I have not seen a solution how people have overcome this with simple basic tools like those I have mentioned before and in the pic of tools purchased from Brownells. Tools are the Throat reamer for the 45 cyl, throat reamer pilots, the chamber finish reamer for the 45, the 2 45-1 chamfer tool pilots

These are Pilots from Brownells on their website, per their info, the 45-1 for the SW 625. Mind you, they fit just right on the replacement cyl with no mod to anything.

I am trying to figure out what going on with the SW 625 revolver to chamfer using the chamfer tool and pilots from Brownells. Brownells website says to use the 45-1 version for the SW 25 & 625. Both Steel & Brass pilots are the 45-1 ver. The replacement cylinder was from a repair job S&W did 6 months ago prior to founding out the pilots did not fit the orig cyl S&W sent back, but the pilots fit with the replacement cyl. My friend has a new 625-8 to which the pilots did not fit as well and S&W told him its to SAMMI spec and sent it back to him unmodified. What are we missing?

I did read some where that RSA is another entity of Eagle Imports. Just was not sure of the actual stamping RSA vs Eagle on the P45. Are you able to tell me if there is a SKU for the P45 with the dynamic rear and fiber front I see in all the distributors photos verse a three dot sight system I saw stamp with RSA? I prefer the fiber front and dynamic rear. I have the fiber on all my other GP's (MK6&MK7) and well as the dynamic on some. However, DawsonPrecision does not have the dynamic anymore.
