Thank you. Good to hear Umberto is still making them.
-
Anyone know if Umberto is still making them? His email bounced.

This is exactly the problem. Lee does not make a dedicated 9mm shell holder like other manufacturers.
-
It seems only Dillon is having problems getting their carbide ring inserts for 9mm dies. Redding Ti carbide 9mm dies are easy to find and IMHO, better quality than Dillon. I have Dillon dies that came with my Dillon presses (RL1050/1100), but I still choose to use Redding pro series dies.

FW Arms now offering an Expander Die. - Link in Thread
67isb replied to Sigarmsp226's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
From the video, it was hard to tell if there is a step like a "M-die" -
The answer is yes and no. All current production titanium carbide pistol dies are "NxGen." NxGen sizing dies have a longer titanium carbide ring/insert than the non, "NxGen" dies. The exception being the 9mm sizing die. The titanium carbide die ring/insert is the same length so there is no reason to buy the "NxGen" sizing die.

Adjust this linkage where it is shorter. This will ensure the brass case gets pushed out and ejected. Also, any chance you're trying to decap Norma 9mm brass? Those will have a very small flash hole and will cause issues.
-
I had the same problem when I first got mine. The adjustment was off. The link the pushes/slides the brass case (horizontally)in was not adjusted properly. Remove one end and make that link shorter and see how that works.

RL 1100 new press setup issues.

That is a great video. Thank you. I'm going to do this on my presses. -
Roll sizer drop tube bracket revision ok?
67isb replied to IHAVEGAS's topic in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
One more area of improvement. The aluminum hose adapter which attaches to the Dillon case feeder does not have enough bevel on the inside. I will get 9mm cases getting stuck due to having a 1/8" ledge. -
Roll sizer drop tube bracket revision ok?
67isb replied to IHAVEGAS's topic in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
Mine looks like the one you describe. 90* is bent (not welded) and the horizontal piece with a slot cut out is not flat at all like the pic of the earlier revision in the video. I ended up using a small cut piece of silicone cooking sheet to keep it from moving around. This was my temporary workaound until I can fix it myself. Drop tube bracket on the commercial rollsizer is very poorly made. The fix will be to cut it off and weld a flat piece of steel on it. While I love my rollsizer, there are areas which are done very poorly for an $1800+ part. 1. Angle bracket for legs suck. Flimsy metal and looks like crap. 2. Drop tube bracket 3. Angled chute for brass. Why is the welded seam on the bottom? It would make more sense to put the seam on the top. 4. Square tubing for case feeder location. Why was it not located where the brass could drop straight down? 5. Welds looks like crap. You can't find any good welders down there? The way it should have been built was done my ltdmster. -
I hope someone can figure this out and decides to sell them. I really need one.

9mm case stuck in de-capping die
67isb replied to GregInAtl's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
What is the headstamp of the brass? I had some stuck cases when I tried to size stepped cases. Now, I'm more careful and make sure those stepped cases go into the recycle bin. If you don't already have one.. Get something like this. https://www.scheels.com/p/rcbs-stuck-case-remover/07668309340.html?msclkid=77bd8e882b161cdde0e9eabf44d8c5fd -
Any update to this? I hope you can figure it out and start selling them...

Frankford Arsenal FX-10 progressive press
67isb replied to BiknSwans's topic in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
It is supposed to cut the primer pocket perfectly (width/depth). The swager just swages and get it close, but no adjustment for depth or width. I do not have it yet, but will certainly put it on my future buy list. -
Frankford Arsenal FX-10 progressive press
67isb replied to BiknSwans's topic in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
Immortal Arms has the VP primer pocket reamer for the 1050/1100. I doubt Dillon will release anything like this. Sad to say, but feels like Dillon is not doing much innovation these days while the competition (Mark 7, Frankford Arsenal) is spending money on R&D and release new products. https://immortobot.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=72 -
I use Redding dies too. Great dies and does not undersize excessively. Might consider buying the Redding Pro die set. You'll get the Pro seating die (better than regular seating die) and crimp die for a little more than the sizer alone. https://www.accuratearmsandammo.com/product.sc?productId=1241&categoryId=338 If you're concerned about the extra force required to resize 9mm cases, you might consider using lube or rollsizing the cases. Rollsizing make a noticeable difference and will reduce the amount of cases that will not gauge.

Fast and Friendly Auto drive for RL 1100
67isb replied to CenTX's topic in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
I don't see any benefit in having to modify the frame and immediately voiding the warranty. I'd rather go with proven options for automating a Dillon. -

From 1050 to 1100 - what's compatible?
67isb replied to bgary's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Better option is from Immortal arms. It will fit RL1050, super 1050, and 1100. Also is larger in size. https://immortobot.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=37_45&products_id=426&zenid=kvlomlddkmbc086fgtbaf4ql81 -
How important is Powder Check?
67isb replied to davidjon_99's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
I use this endoscope. Stand it up in the small akro bin and mount the camera so it points down on bullet feeder station. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08VDZBT65/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 -
Np sir!
