Just curious how many have had to modify the ejector wire to get the mod with the bearing and washers to work. I order the parts from McMaster-Carr and sure enough they stop the snapping. However, the ejector wire is now preventing the case insert slide from completely aligning the case with the station 1 die. I am trying to figure out if others are bending the ejector wire to the clear the case insert slide to the left or if they are bending the tip down so that it fits deeper in the platform hole. I have tried both and can't seem to get it "just right". For those that have had to bend the ejector wire, is it a significant bend (relatively speaking) or just a very slight, light-handed tweak?

+1 on the T-Nuts. When I mounted my XL 650 I did feel better getting larger bolts to use the largest T-Nuts I could find. It did require slight reaming of the Strong Mount mounting holes, but worked like a champ.

The last of my 1/29 order arrived today. Carbide .223 dies arrived on 4/13, so just a bit over 11 weeks from date of order.

Brand new to both Dillon and this Forum. Is anyone receiving .223 dies (either carbide or steel)? I haven't seen many mentions of folks receiving them since early March. I ordered on 1/29 through BE and haven't seen them yet and am patiently waiting. Just wondering if anyone else ordering .223 dies around the same time has gotten them yet. Thanks
