It irritates me that I was probably one of the first people in the country to place a paid-in-full order for one, but, because I didn't order from Dillon direct due to their lack of preorders at the time, I still likely have several months to wait.

I paid in full for mine with Immortobot on September 13th. Last time I inquired, Dillon had only sent them 2 of the 20 they had ordered. Getting frustrated....

I would have to see proof that the primers aren't being damaged before I took such a risky step.

The main issue I had was that the "kisser" was too thick and causing dragging. Without it in place, if a case got into the funnel sideways another one would land on top of it and push the collator plate up and over allowing brass to go under it. It is working very well for me now that the "kisser" has thinned out a bit from use. I also bent a small piece of copper wire into a U shape and slid it onto the funnel so there isn't enough room for a 9mm case to drop in sideways.

I think the common link is Lead Star Arms.

Ejector swipes and extractor marks to boot. Must be some hot ammo.

I am a completely gadget nerd. I started reloading on a 650 three years ago, added a bullet feeder and other press upgrades. That wasn't enough, so, I ordered an RL1100, an Ammobot, a Mr Bulletfeeder Pro, all of the sensors, case extractor, etc. I also bought a commercial Rollsizer and a Hasgrok Feedinator..... I am not sure where this will stop.

I feel bad for DAA for how poorly this has gone. Mine did extremely poorly with the V1 disk, and just OK with the V2 with S&B SPP. I tried HBN powder on the ramp and the primers were flying down it so quickly that I could barely see them. Sadly, that was short lived and at less than 500 primers the ramp started jamming up again.

If it is all clean, send it to me and I will anneal and rollsize all of it for you. I have not had the chance to run my Rollsizer on .223 and I don't have enough of my own brass to warrant switching my case feeder and rollsizer over from 9mm. Just pay return postage. Or, sell it to me cheap to give me a reason to spend more time in my reloading room playing with my gadgets.

Every 2k put a new spring in the rear and rotate the previous one to the front.

I am running a 115 in my open gun at basically the same speed you run your 90. I have fired my open load out of other guns with no issues, but you may not want to try it.

I did this experiment for a steel challenge load for my CK open pistol. It is a hot load, but I saw no primer flattening.

I have loaded a ton of 147gr HST and had to overcome this same issue. Brass cases bulge the worst, nickel is better in general, but Federal seems to have the least internal taper. I ordered 2k pieces of once fired nickel and sorted out all of the FC headstamps to be loaded for social use, and every other headstamp is for practice. A charge of 5.1gr of VihtaVuori N350, a CCI magnum small pistol primer and an OAL of 1.125" round everything out. I average about 1050fps out of my CZ P10C.

Federal nickel brass is your friend.

This is disconcerting. I am down to about 40k S&B primers and was about to order a ton of Ginex

I saw one for sure. I won't spend 2200 on that.

I saw a kit the other day that doubles it to 200; I just dont remember where.

I have been using the same email address for 20+ years. The amount of accounts I would have to update is ridiculous.

I do that with all of your emails, but I found another one from you in my spam today. I am pleased to say that it is a shipping notification, but still irritated it went to spam. I am going to try adding your e-mail address to my contacts.

It makes me mad how much stuff Hotmail puts in spam because that is where the DAA email about these being in stock went, so it looks like my order from December 7th wasn't part of the first batch....

Mark7 was recently purchased by Lyman, and they are said to be bringing significant improvements to the products. I say we wait until SHOT to see what those improvements are.

I have an aftermarket one that won't fit. The manufacturer sent me a replacement that worked, but I stick to Dillon now.

Made in Japan Maxell are great.

Not at all. In fact, they are some of the smoothest bullets I have put through my Mr Bulletfeeder.
