SDM Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) I bought my 650 used and this was in the box. What would he have used it for? I don't see it in my manual. Edited December 17, 2011 by SDM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Gonsalves Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I'm not at home in front of my press and it's been a long time since I've had mine apart, but I believe it the "chute" the loaded round slides down on it's way to the bin.

Too_Slow Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) It looks like the 'Finished Cartridge Chute' from an old 550. As I recall the earliest design for the 450 and 550 mounted to the strong mount like that. The present design is a lot different however. The closest that I see to that design is for the SDB but even that is different. Brian Edited December 17, 2011 by Too_Slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Looks just like my 550 bracket only mine is not black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 You can see the top of it just to the left of the handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Here it is in black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Too_Slow Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I just took another look at the design, and yes it is the chute for a 550 that uses a strong mount. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDM Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 That explains why I couldn't find a place for it. I won't tell you how long I messed with it trying to find where it went. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelletgun Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I have one in use, mine is silver in color. It is the discharge shoot for use on the Strong Mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnmccoy Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Mine is silver as well but looks the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDM Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 This one was a gloss black (almost looked blued) when I got it and had some rusted spots. I sanded on it and hit it with some black primer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnmccoy Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I wonder if someone painted it or put some kind of coating on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvarez Kelly Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Some were black and some were silver when they were shipped from Dillon. I never worried about the color. They both worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmclaine Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Perhaps the black ones were for tactical reloading? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
