Two different Dillon 9 mm powder dies.

[Pelletgun]

I hadn't looked till now. But there are major differences in these two Dillon 9 mm powder drop dies. The black one on the left has a simple cone that flares the case. The chrome plated one on the left has an expanding plug then a cone for the flare. It is also marked with a F. that expander plug has been measured at .352 The black one came out of a 1050 that I have had for approximately nine years. The chrome one came from a 550 that I had put away in its original box when I made way for the 1050. No more room on my bench. I just find it interesting the changes that have been made. And I have never owned a double alpha bullet feeder.

Left one for 1050 only flairs case. expansion is preformed at station 3 . The right one does both at one time. This is not a change.
