D.Hayden Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 There was a mini-thread started under "Reloading Benches" in the Gallery section.. I didn't want to Hijack that thread... If you have a "Container Store" in your area, they make larger bins like these (the smaller one is the dillon one, dillon just put's thier name on it) - the medium one must hold 400+ 9MM - and it attaches the same way, just slide it on - I haven't had one slip or break - Or, if you just want more of the small bins, they're 0.89 - for quick change outs http://www.containerstore.com/browse/Produ...62645&CATID=166 Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I think most Dillon customers are aware that Akrobins makes the bins. However, we support Dillon because of their contributions to the shooting sports and to the shooting community. As such, their efforts warrant my loyalty. A couple of extra pennies to support a company that supports my sports is worth it. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Hayden Posted December 19, 2003 Author Share Posted December 19, 2003 Rich - good point - I was really posting to put forward the "larger bin" idea.. (then my cheap side added the 2nd) - I don't know if most people are aware the bigger ones fit the same way (at least on a 550) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPatterson Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 For those into large bins check out the ones for the SL 900, the large bin holds 500 45's and mounts on the strong mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loves2Shoot Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I just let them drop into a 5 gallon bucket, forgoing the bins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 I hope the 5 gallon bucket is right under the "exit chute" instead of down on the floor several feet below. It's not unknown for a loaded round to light off when dropping a significant distance onto other loaded rounds. No, I've never had it happen, but I believe the people who say it's happened to them.

Tony Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 Good point Duane about ejecting rounds from your reloader into buckets, few months ago, it was announced at one of our local matches in the northwest, making sure we all accounted for all live ammunition that may have been ejected or fallen onto the ground during the match because previously, as freak as they may sound; at one previous match somewhere, one shooter’s pistol ejected a spent cartridge landing on the ground obviously and it somehow hit a live round laying on the ground and guess what? Yep, live discharge. Odds of this occurrence, who knows. I wasn’t present during the big surprise, thank god! Never heard much else about this and hopefully not ever again. Just not safe enough at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
