Gomar83 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Has anyone tried removing one of these older powder measure hoppers and replace it with the new style with the two screws holding it in place? Are the two springs necessary for the powderbar return? Edited March 24, 2019 by Gomar83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHI Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) its glued/pressed in and yes the two springs are necessary. Edited March 25, 2019 by AHI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooke Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 It appears he has a fail safe rod on the hopper. In that case no springs required. If I'm wrong you need to get a newer style hopper with a fail safe rod. That change wasn't an idle mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHI Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) He has the old style rod with a clip. springs are required. the old style powder measures are a lot smother and consistent. Edited March 25, 2019 by AHI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gomar83 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Does Dillon still offer them, and will the newer powder hopper work in place of my old cracked one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
