Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Nobody really gives a split what you do with it.
  2. I heard major banks are now taking primers and powder for collateral on car loans.
  3. AHI..." Why shouldn't the SOLO unit do the same? " Can you answer this?
  4. AHI...You can reload with a Dillon 550c with it's single stage conversion kit. Reloading includes sizing and decapping. On every other reloader, decapping also deposits the spent primers in some form of container. Why shouldn't the SOLO unit do the same?
  5. AHI..."The SOLO™ Single Stage Press Conversion Kit converts your Dillon RL 550B, XL 650 or XL 750 press to a single stage press. This allows you to perform reloading operations that simply cannot be done using a Dillon progressive reloading press." Converts to single stage press. Says nothing about not being used for decapping,sizing.
  6. Sorry for the misleading part of my post. The adapter is not made by Dillon.
  7. Just received, assembled, and started using my new Dillon single stage adapter. When using the sizing, decapping die the spent primers stack up inside the shell holder adapter bolt. This setup is being used in a 550 series Dillon. After sizing, decapping about 10 - 15 rounds I have to clear the spent primers off the plate and out of the adapter bolt. Anyone else having same problem ? Cure ? Thanks in advance...captn-tin
  8. Does anyone know how many of the mega monolithic single rail MTS-420-V2 were made before they were discontinued because of the patent infringement lawsuit ? I have one and am just wondering how rare they might be. Thanks in advance for any help, captn-tin.
  9. Using 9mm RCBS dies in my 550B Dillon unit, I'm having a problem with maintaining correct OAL. Loading Extreme 115 gr HP plated bullets to 1.130 ", the 1st couple will be OK then start varying by .003 - .010". Same thing happens after reset the seater die. I'm also using a Lee factory crimp die in station 4 but I don't think that would have any affect on the length. Just wondering cause I also load for 38 super, 38 special and .357, and .454 with no problem. Anyone out there experience this problem. Could it be I'm expecting to much, just a 74 yr old nitpicker. thanks for any help...captn-tin Same headstamp in batches.
  10. dillon....Removed aftermarket parts. Verified #3 shellplate and pins. Same problem. Tried 45 acp shellplate with factory parts, and aftermarket parts. Worked great. Shellplates ever go bad?
  11. Meant to say alignment tool is what I used, and the no.3 on the shell plate is facing up so it is positioned correctly. Should point out that I'm using a Level 10 Innovations Low mass shell plate bearing kit, with the long bolt, if that makes any difference.
  12. Just cleaned and lubed my 550b. Put it back together using indexing tool, and now the cartridges will not slide into the shell holder slots at station 1,2,3 or 4. Any ideas? Thanks
  13. Picked up bout 1000 rnds 5.56 military brass that has been sized and decapped, although I'm not sure about the sizing. Just curious as to if it has been sized or just decapped. How to tell for sure? Will be processing thru a dillon 550b. Does the sizing die have to be in press for other functions (charging, seating, etc) to work correctly? If it is already sized no need to size again, right? Thanks for any help.
  14. Have 1948 vintage 1911 in 38 super with non-ramped kart barrel. Gonna start reloading for it soon, and was wondering which brass to use. I've decided on Starline brass, but don't know weather to use +P or Super Comp. I presume they both headspace on the case mouth. I've read where some extractor work might be needed with the super comp. Does this work need to be done by a gunsmith or can it be done by self. Thanks in advance...Bill
  15. Anyone here ever heard of alpha lafranc custom bullets? Friend of mine just gave me 2 boxes for my 454 casull. Never heard of them before. Thanks
