TBeazlie Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 I've made the move to an open gun in 38 super comp. I have a new 650 with the new style powder measure and am using 4756 powder. The old style powder measures have always been within 0.1 grain plus or minus but this one was way off at time plus or minus 0.5 grains. 4756 is a new powder to me, but i had the same problem with 3n37 which has always metered well. When i changed back to the old style powder measure it seemed to do OK with the 4756. Whats up with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.40AET Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 Eric-Thanks a lot for the downgrade infor. It looks clear to me. I just ordered a 650 from Brian and can't wait to start fixing it. Thanks also for all of the work you put into the forum. Kirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above was from 2004. It's now nearing the end of 2007. Anyone know if Dillon has "fixed" this "improvement"? I think I'm ready to order a 550B based on Brian's Dillon FAQ. Has any of that advice changed as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They each have pros and cons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
