Thanks. I'd tightened/adjusted but problem still presents. I'll clean and look for debris. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Has Dillon upgraded priming systems. Have a 550 about 4 years old.

Anyone here running an SL 900?
MikeHunter replied to 3gunnah's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Powerfactor show guys have a great video about tweak to eliminate primer issues. I did as they suggested and I have zero primer issues now. Love the press. -
Hornady to Dillon 550b
MikeHunter replied to goosehead's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
I had the same concern. With a single brass in the 550 I intentionally did a double charge to see what it looked like with my powder of choice. Now easy to see the difference as I run the press and visually look as I index. -
RT 1200 doesn't make chips, it makes strings
MikeHunter replied to Dr Mitch's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Don't use a RT 1200 but my trimmer does the same, makes tiny brass thread/string. -

Finally had time to do the washer mod today. Haven't had a misdeed yet.

Love the press but the primer drop is still 7/100 error. Powerfactor guys talk about gluing a washer on primer drop activator. Anyone done this? Results? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Dillon 550b Essentials
MikeHunter replied to MissionaryMike's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Go to Brian's web site and he has easy click for 550. You can customize it minimally or "as it should be". I couldn't afford the max originally, but bought incrementally. Focus on one caliber. Get that up, then add others as you can. Slow and steady wins this race over time. You have to factor value and quality of tools. Things of value endure. http://www.brianenos.com/store/dillon.ez.550crbasic.html Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD -
I use it. A light touch goes a long way. I use the nesting trays to sort by size/caliber and that process takes care of dirt and rocks. In a very short time I can recapture, sort and be ready to clean and begin the reloading process again. I always come home with more than I shoot. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

As others have said, many of you have mentored. And this forum has been invaluable. -
Dies for Glocked Brass?
MikeHunter replied to ES13Raven's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
My brass, my glock brass, range brass, any brass, no issues in 9mm. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD -
Love my 900 but it does leak a little powder at the drop. I've tried dryer sheets, wiped down the hulls, etc. but still leaks. Ideas? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Had one for about two months. I love it. Not my first Dillon so setting powder and shot weight was familiar. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
