  1. No you are fine without having to put up pictures. I am just surprised they sent you and upgrade parts kit, unless your powder measure was broken? If it was just to upgrade to the newer failsafe system that is impressive!
  2. So Dillon upgraded your powder measure no questions asked? I am surprised but in a way not based on all the reviews of their great customer service.
  3. Yes they are and I am extremely pleased about that. Too bad I can't afford to buy any supplies but in time it will all be mine.
  4. Very cool! Have to possibly meet up some time. I don't have many friends in Wichita.
  5. I honestly couldn't tell you. I am new to this and bought my press used and that is the powder measure that came with it. From what I have read, this is the old return fail safe system. The springs are what return the powder bar slide home. I am sure someone will correct me if my research is wrong. Where in Kansas are you? I live in Derby (Wichita).
  6. Does your assembly look like mine? http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=158129
  7. Sorry, it just looked wrong in the 2nd photo. This is not something to worry about. Actually, the black ones are easier to remove when you want to dump the powder. Some prefer them. Enjoy! You're right, in the picture I took it was on top. I changed it before you made your post. Until I get some supplies, I am stuck with where I am at. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  8. The "new" white ones are a newer design. There is nothing wrong with the older style black ones. The "cup" side is supposed to contact the spring, under the failsafe arm. If it was me, I would re-install it correctly, and load some ammo. That is how it is installed now. I guess I just got used to seeing videos with the white one, it made me question the older style. As for loading some ammo, that just isn't happening yet. I am having to put this together little by little. So I bought the largest piece, now I have to get everything else. Tumbler, seperator, scale, etc. Thanks for the suggestion and help.
  9. I understand what you are saying. My terminology is still in the works. Looking at my picture, do I need to replace the black piece to fit into the bracket coming off the plate? Otherwise, I am set up. Just have to look at why my primer slide is binding slightly. The joy of buying used has it's advantages and disadvantages. Thanks again for the help.
  10. I am assuming my problem is my black piece attaching to the plate is broken. I assumed it was a different setup from newer models. Picture should confirm that is my issue Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  11. Ok. Thanks for all of the replies. I am talking about the second picture where I have seen the white piece that attaches to the plate. If I am good I do appreciate the help. I just have to figure out what side I am supposed to attach the bar. Right now when I pull the handle, I doesn't raise the plate. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  12. Ok. Does this style require the white top hat like the newer style powder measures or am I missing how the bar and spring is supposed to be set? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  13. I hate starting new threads but I wasn't sure if I should put this in the tips and tricks. It is a general question about the type of powder setup I have. Looking at the picture do any of you know if this needs the white top hat type of insert? Also, is this powder measure fairly old since I have seen videos that have a dual setup for the powder measure. Just looking for a little tidbit on my 550. Otherwise, I do have a good start on what I have read and watched. Thanks!
