BullyDog Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I need to load some 50ae, anyone doing this on a super 1050? What shell plate do I need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RePete Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 It looks like you won't be loading 50AE on a 1050. RCBS lists a #33 shell plte for their 5 station press but the shellholder is #33 and only for the 50AE but no other cartridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillon Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 The C shellplate might work, this is what we use on the XL650. The bigger issue is case feeding- the large diameter of the body of the case will probably not feed through the tube, and I doubt the case will fit into the large case feed plunger. The 1050 loaders were not designed for a case that large in diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BullyDog Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 OK, I got it setup. I found all the parts I needed from my other conversion kits. Here is a list of what you will need: 45 Long Colt "Yellow" case feed adapter 45 Long Colt shell plate "C" 45 Long Colt "#4" location pins 500 S&W Plunger 500 S&W/ 50AE powder funnel X-Large powder die 50AE Die-set I noticed the 45 long colt swage should work if you have a crimped primer pocket. I really didn't need to use it, since I was reloading factory brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
