Just ran a hundred rounds with the upgrade, the powder measure bounces around a lot more then using the springs.

Just did a 1000 rounds of 9mm today.

Me, I just throw everything in the stainless tumbler for 2-3 hours and it comes out like new.

I just got done reloading some 40S&W, and I noticed the primer was pressed in sideways. Just glad this baby didn't go off.
I had in the past upside down primers, but never anything pressed into place sideways.

Forgot to post image.
Our dryer comes with a drying rack, just throw in a old bath towel set on high heat for about 25 minutes.

I use mamma's clothes dryer, works great when you sonic clean or use stainless media.

I just ordered a bunch of fail-safe upgrades for my Dillon powder measures. Is there any benefits by upgrading? or should I just stick with using the older type with springs?

Fixed, took all about 5 minutes.

Take it apart and flip it around.
The lower part of the arm is a bolt, but the upper arm is pressed in placed.
I have taken my 550 totally apart.
Took your advice, and took the lower assembly all apart. See my picture, not very hard at all.
Found a paddle bit extension that would fit in the hole on pin holding lower arm.

A mistake is a mistake and I am sure Dillon will fix this but I would really like to hear what they have to say.
Good luck,
Marc
I will be calling them on Monday. They have been great to deal with on past issues.

Sorry about this being my first post, but I have been a long time reader.
Anyhow, I just got my RL550B press back from Dillon for repair and overhaul. Got everything back on the bench and setup. And to my surprise, the arm that holds the primer catch bin is on backwards. How did this happen? Has anybody had something like this? Dillon had the press for 3 weeks for repair plus the time it takes to mail it.
See the attached picture.

Hopefully your not loading your shells at the max charge. You should be fine if you load right in the middle. I also have the same issues with my setup with certain powders.
