Kind of a random question/request.
Anyone with an Ammobot autodriven 1050, can you please measure the height of the entire setup to the top of the case feeder?
In my current reloading room, I'm limited by the height of the ceiling so I'm debating making my bench shorter if I need to fit this on there.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know why the 5" ppq doesn't get more love. It's a great pistol and the mags are 15 rd.

Use a right hand cut left hand spiral end mill cuts very smooth does not try and suck in to work pushes chips down. A number of them can be found on internet.
Any links?

I used to run these on my Q5, which uses the same magazines as M2, I think.

I came across those and they're the most economical option thus far. Does that keep the gun legal for production? Still fit in the box?

Bueller....

What is everyone using? I'm trying to find some decent ones that won't break the bank to be able to use my new toy in production.
Any suggestions?

Following this thread. I can't log in either.

I still can't log in via tapatalk. Is that a known issue?

From the scale you really need repeatability far more than "accuracy".
In other words precision.

mikey, yes, and you have to use lube for that, in fact, I use lube to load my 357SIG. But not a conventional lube, I use dry mold release. You don't have to remove it after loading.

So I don't follow. The post above says you only use a little car polish when tumbling. Now you're saying you use a release agent.

I tumble in walnut loaded with mineral oil for cleaning, then in corn loaded with NuFinish car polish. They come out shinning and very slippery, no need for case lube.
Have you ever loaded rifle? I've never lubed pistol but rifle is impossible without lube.

I just ordered the spill stop today. On both the 650 and 1050, I always have a crapload of powder after loading 9mm. Hopefully this helps.

This topic has come up here before. IIRC those who had used the one that lubed using some roller wheels and a pad were not overly impressed. Maybe this is a different one?
I just use Dillon Case Lube and a zip lock bag. A couple of shots of lube goes into the bag first, then the brass, toss to coat, then dump into the case feeder to air out for 15+ minutes.
It sounds like the same thing.
I currently have a very similar process. Except I use imperial case lube instead of Dillon. Might make the switch to a liquid lube.

I came across something on eBay that's marketing itself as an automatic case oiler. Basically its a case feeder tube with 3 wheels and a small dish that you put lube into. So as the case passes the wheels they get lubed.
Curious if anyone has tried on their 1050s? Wouldn't mind automating that part of my loading.

Can't answer the question but, why do you guys want the bar over an end mill?
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkWhat are the advantages of the boring bar and carbide insert over the end mill you ask?
When an end mill dulls, it has to be replaced and thrown in the "to be sharpened" stack. When a new end mill is installed, the depth of the end mill has to be exactly where the last end mill was removed from. If not, the die cutting depth will change, and as such, the die will have to slightly be raised or lowered in the tool head to accommodate this change.
With a boring bar, when the carbide insert dulls, all that has to be done is to remove the Bosch motor from the trimmer adapter, remove the TS6 screw, and either rotate to a new cutting edge (there are three) or replace the carbide insert. Reinstall the motor, and verify that cut length hasn't changed.

Curious as well...

Seems like it's cheaper to get some dedicated web space somewhere. Can get a VPS for around $5/month.
