RCBS Uniflow question

[xd shooter]

I just got the Uniflow with a missing handle & a broken hopper.
I found the 1-800 call RCBS number, but does anyone know where I can get a couple parts for this jewl?

Easiest to call RCBS. I would bet they ship for free.

Or maybe Huntington's.

+1 Just call RCBS! They will get you fixed up!

I don't know of anybody that sells the hopper or handle. +2 RCBS will probably send you the parts for free. They sent me a new lid for mine.

+3 on calling RCBS. Everything I have needed for my equipment has always been free. Great customer service!

I have to agree ++++4 lol. Call RCBS and they will send you out the parts. And they may not even charge you for them. Great people to deal with. :)

Thanks for the replys fellere.
Looks like I have the parts on the way (at no charge), so it looks like I have $10 in a RCBS uniflow. I also made a stand for it today.

While I was on the phone with them I mentioned my Pro melt was dripping & he said he would also send me a new pin for it also. BTW I picked it up at an auction for $45 full of pure lead & a Lyman 4 cav ingot mold.

I sure hope I can keep running across these deals!!

See we told you about RCBS :).

My first Uniflow I messed up and put TightGroup in it and let it sit over night as I was going to load more of the same thing in the morning. It melted into the Hopper on my brand new uniflow. I did try and clean it but no way. I called RCBS and told them about it and What I did and I was willing to pay for a new hopper. And they informed me no biggie that they would send me a new hopper free of charge. I was really sold on RCBS after that.

I've got an old Uniflow from 1963. The hopper was broken when I got it in 1968. Rigged up a clear plastic hopper with some tape. Worked fine for 40 years.

Read this thread....called RCBS yesterday...NEW hopper on the way!! WOW.

Have to say...that old measure is one of my most ACCURATE and REPEATABLE measures on the bench.

I like them, free replacement pin for my Berdan decapping tool.

I'm curious…how's the hopper attached to the casting? I have 2 (1 I bought new; the other was at a thrift shop and was a mess), and the one I had to clean up seemed to be glued. Since they're plastic, I never wanted to experiment…

They are pressure fit. My green hopper periodically gets loose and I push it down and turn until it feels tight and I think it won't spill powder all over the place. I called RCBS and they sent me a black hopper and said they were pressure fit.. Believe the lady said hoppers were installed with a 2x4 and a rubber mallet. The color clashes so I have never installed it.
