ES13Raven Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) I don't really like the standard Dillon 500b ball handle, and was going to buy the Roller Handle. I saw that Inline Fabrication makes an Ergo Roller Handle for the Dillon 550.Has anyone tried both? Is the Ergo worth the extra $10?

kneelingatlas Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I've never tried the Dillon roller so I didn't vote, but I really like the inline fabricators handle. The offset trades vertical movement for horizontal movement. I set the height of my bench so that the bottom of the stroke is just before my elbow is straight and the forward priming stroke is at low chest level; very comfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reinz Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I have always used the Dillon Roller on my 1050's. About a yr ago I put an Inline on one of them. I stand while loading due to 3 bulged discs in my lower back. Sitting is my enemy. I thought that reaching further forward would be better than pulling further down. There is no free lunch. You have to go through the range of motion one way or another. Since I recently had everything done to my Rt shoulder with surgery, the reach forward is fine. Is the Inline better? Hard to say, it's just different. If you have shoulder issues, I would not get it, unless stretching forward is good for you. I did not vote, the choices did not apply. I do plan on buying an Inline for my 550. Just don't know which one (short or long). And I've had the Dillon roller over 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdinga Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I like the Inline fabrication products a lot, with the single exception of the roller handle on the square deal . I tried it a couple different times and ended up going back to the round ball. Just didn't fit my hands right for primer seating. This is more of a personal fit issue than a negative comment about the quality of the product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZackJones Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Everything I have bought from Inline Fabrication is first rate. I have their Ergo handle for my RCBS single stage press and really like it. I will eventually replace the handle on my 550B with the Inline Fabrication ergo handle.

GR8GIFT Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I have the Dillon roller handle one plastic one aluminum on my 2 650's. I like them both about the same. No experience with ergo so didn't vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
