CenTX Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Saw this this morning, looks very interesting,but requires a total commitment. You have to send your press for modification and they machine it to work with their drive. Looks pretty nice. Has anyone used one? https://tacticaldefenseusa.com/index.php/2022/10/08/the-fast-and-friendly-brass-auto-drive-solution-for-the-dillon-rl1100/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67isb Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I don't see any benefit in having to modify the frame and immediately voiding the warranty. I'd rather go with proven options for automating a Dillon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extremely rude and unprofessional company, but that's just me. Plus, its not a proven system such as Mark7 auto drive, and others out there.

I believe you void your warranty once you automate any Dillon Press, unless of course you use their automation.

shred Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 RL1100 only has a 1 or 2 year warrantee though, right? 1050s are 1 year. Looks like they adapted the Forcht one-way motion system or something like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOGRIDER Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 IMO, having owned the RL1100 and now an Apex 10, I would definitely prefer the digital belt driven Mark7 automation unit. If using the 8 station RL1100/S1050 with the Mark7 unit, and you later want to upgrade to say the 10 station Apex 10, then for an additional $250, you can use the same automation unit! And your S1050/RL1100 would still be un-modified in case you decided to sell or re-purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
