CFE-Pistol measure very consistent for me.

I did bend it better but now the rod has a bow to it.It works now just barley clear it. Didn't have a vise only channel locks. So I ordered another one from Dillon. I as also Curious if the new one I get has a better 90 Bend in it.. A Z-bend. I have a set of Z-bend pliers but they are so smaller stock RC stuff for airplanes.

The rod i have is not at a 90 degree angle. So since the rod is inserted into the bellcrank from the left side the smaller part of the bellcrank (outside one) doesn't get pulled down as much as the inner bell crank because the rod isn't at a 90 degree angle. If i match both holes of the inner and outside bellcrank without the rod inserted ( the bottom slot of the inside bellcrank matches the outside hole exactly) it will miss the body of the powder measure every time. I have gorilla tightened the bolt u suggested ( it was loose) but it still didn't solve the problem.

Called Dillon, call went right through talked to Dave. He is sending out a new fail safe rod. Ill let u all know when the other ones get here how much of a 90 degree there is.

Thanks for all your input. I re-bent the fail safe rod to a better 90 degrees. I also tightened the black socket head cap screw as suggested. The bell crank hits on the way up but not on the way down, which I think that is the way it is supposed to work. on the downstroke It barley clears it but barley is enough for me. Thanks again to all who chimed in with their suggestions. I will be calling Dillon to see if I can get a 90 degree fail safe rod as well.

I have the measure loose I haven't tightened the two screws. The two brass colored pieces aren't binding. I didn't explain it very well. The front ear of the top brass colored piece is hitting the body of the powder measure. I placed an arrow where it is binding

I just completed a caliber change on my dillon 550. Now on the downstroke Powder measure binds, the brass colored levers hit the front of casting of the powder measure. I just purchased a new powder measure so I wouldn't have to keep changing/adjusting them. With the original powder measure I have been able to reload both 45 and 44 mag with no problem. I am currently trying to reload 357 mag. I have tried to adjust the powder fail safe rod to see if it won't bind any more but it still does. Any Ideas?
