Dillon round counter


Recommended Posts

Hi, here is a picture of my ammo counter. Using an Arduino, a Digital IR sensor and a PC. The reason for doing it this way, is that most counting systems never count actual rounds reloaded. My sensor triggers on reloaded rounds down the chute. The software is programmed by me as well. Seems to work as intended, but I need to do a lot more testing...

So, 5V DC will do just fine like a USB charger to run the sensor. Then you can use what counter you prefer. Sensor is NO. (Normally Open, output 0V)
