The brass with the antlers on them are Browning brass. I have reloaded them and they are just as good as federal or Winchester.

Thanks for the clarification.

No I wouldn't crimp 9mm past .375 and in my testing .377-.379 works best, I personally crimp all 9mm now at .358.

Was this a typo?
 

I hope it is because .358 is way past .375.

Oh nice. No issue using it, as it holds it secure enough?

None at all. You can also buy the 3D- printed ones. Cheaper and works just as good. 
 

A friend has a 3D printer and printed me a couple of these for my 1100 and 550.

If I could ask, what is this Quick Release you speak of in this post?  I am curious and have never ran across one when researching reloading equipment.

It’s this one:

it’s spring loaded and just pull the tab towards you to disengage and remove the powder measure without fiddling or removing the screws.

@George16On your 9mm processing toolhead I see the FW Arms die. What are the dies at stations 7 and 8? Thanks.

I installed a Lee U-die without the decapping pin on station 7 and Redding sizing die in station 8. 
 

The Redding sizing die is just there because it’s an extra I have.

Not to get off subject but U2 rock knowing the old Marantz looks like a 2270 ? 
My Instagram user name

Marantz19

Yes, it’s a Marantz 2270. Bough it from an old gentleman back in 2012 for $50 because there wasn’t any sound coming out due to blown power caps. I installed new power caps, audio-grade electrolytic caps and transistors from Mouser Electronics and painstakingly replaced each one of them.

 

My just turned 14 year old daughter has a Marants 2240 paired with a nice Garrard turntable and a pair of Acoustic Research Ar4x I also bought from the old gentleman I got the 2270 from.

 

My next project is to resurrect a Marantz 140 power amp once I get some time to sit down and check everything.

@Dirtbag, glad you found my thread re camera system. I installed the camera to make sure the case is primed because there were instances in. The past wherein I forgot to put more primers after the alarm went off. I got carried away pulling the crank until I noticed the spilled powder on my table.

 

@Sigarmsp226, you forgot to mention the Infinity QB speakers with the EMIT twitters underneath the 301’s .

Thanks for the pictures. Looks like a very nice setup! It also sounds like I'll be adding dies quickly no one I see sticks 100% with the Dillon ones

Thank you.

 

Yes regarding the Dillon dies. I’m using Redding, FW Arms, MBF, Lyman and Lee for my setups.

George do you have a 2nd tool head/stand or do you just manually swap everything out? 223 will be the next set that I need and idk if I should start with dies or a toolhead to keep the setup cleaner. 

I actually have three tool heads and tool head stands. One each for processing 9mm (this can be configured to load .223 also by removing the 9mm U-die and installing appropriate .223 dies), .223 (with Bosch trimmer and M die) and another dedicated tool head for loading 9mm.

 

Its more expensive doing it this way but it makes up for the amount of time fiddling around with the setup if I have to move dies around. I just remove and install the appropriate tool head, shell plate, case feeder stuff and I’m good to go. It doesn’t even take more than five minutes swapping them.

 

I mostly load .223 on my 550.

What has been the wait time on Dillon RL1100?

It all depends on what setup you ordered. Mine took five weeks because I ordered it without dies and conversion kit since it would have taken much longer.

 

So I ended up ordering the 1100 directly from Dillon (ordered May 29, 2020 and received it first week of July 2020). I ordered the 9mm and .223 conversion kits from DAA.

 

I don’t think Dillon allows ordering the 1100 without the conversion kit nowadays iirc.

As you mentioned already, Ancient City shooting range in St Augustine. You can also contact GTR in Gainesville or OK Corral Gun Club in Okeechobee.

[Replacing 3 old ipads]

I used the club’s account in setting up the new Kindle Fire we bought a couple of years ago. This way, the account doesn’t have to be changed again when new club officers take over.

 

As for software, just leave everything on there for the meantime until you have determined which software or app you really need. They don’t slow down the operation of the Kindle if they’re not removed.

As someone new to the reloading game, I would say there is good information here. I went ahead and bought the 750 with a few bells and whistles. I hope I didnt make a mistake.. I guess I could have bought the 1100 but at some point I had to draw a line.  

I don’t think you made a mistake. If you don’t plan on shooting (processing and loading) .223, the 750 will suffice. However, if you plan to load and shoot high volume of .223 down the road, then the 1100 is the better choice than the 750.

 

I had a 650 at one point because I ran out of patience waiting for the 1100. After the 1100 was finally available, I bought it mainly for processing .223 and sold the 650.

[3D Printed Case Collator]

Readin this thread is making me want to buy a 3D printer now. A friend has one and he had been printing a bunch of reloading parts like primer tube holder, gun holder display etc.

 

Or, I can just buy some filament and have him make some custom stuff for me. I think this is a better idea since I can already foresee myself getting frustrated trying to level the printer .
