Forum: Reloading Equipment
question for you guys using the lee... do you sit the case head on the pusher and run it thru the die???? I have this set up but have wondered where the brass gets moved to doing it this way. Seems...

I shot benchrest for several years before Harrell started making his. the majority of what you would see at a nbrsa match was a lyman 55 with a culver conversion performed to it,, or a redding br 3...

I am not in the muzzle loading group but I can tell you a ruger mark II slabside with a red dot and some rat shot is a blast on those things too. only problem is there is not enough umph to cycle...
I have read all the post here and unless I missed it no one has said Shoot with both eyes open. I learned to shoot with both eyes open shooting nbrsa bench rest matches looking thru the scope with...

Banger I must have left out a word. I agree with what your saying I meant to say if that is the case then it is not worth the time to bother with it
thanks for you help
Forum: Lead and Lead Alloys
Thanks guys with that in mind it is probably. It worth the time and electricity to heat it up and melt the tin off the metal for the little amount of plate that would be there

friend of mine loves to shop, dicker, and buy at yard sales and auctions. with that being said he come across some old tin kitchen tools,like sifters and such. Would this be a possible source of...
main reason for me is the gun cost 1,000 dollars and I am not going to hack it up. I can change the mainspring housing for under 100 and still have the original just in case my daughter needs to sell...
I have installed a hogue grip that has the finger groves like a pacmyer for a revolver. This puts my hand in the same spot every time and shooting idpa that makes a difference on the first shot. But...
Thanks man I have looked at there stuff and was really leaning that way,,, you may have just give me the push I needed
ok guys need your opinion on what you would do in this case. I bought a sig 1911 in 40sw and I love it. Shoots well, perfect load worked up with magma mold 180 boolits. here is my problem the main...

Lefty,
you can switch the parts on the powder measure to the old style that uses a different lever and a spring, I call it a mouse trap. look at the lees web site and you will see. I use this set up...

I cannot help you with the rcbs sizer it self but I can tell you that lyman and rcbs sizing dies will work on either machine so you are not limited to just one or the other, My lyman 450 has done...
Forum: Reloading Equipment
swmass, where are you located there may be someone who has a Dillon near you that would be willing to show you how they work and what you need to purchase
Forum: Reloading Equipment
I will try to answer some of your questions with my experience on the Dillon 550. tool heads hold the dies and that is all, but if your going to load 4 different rounds I would suggest 4 tool heads,...

Forum: Reloading Equipment
Good job pee wee that will work and prove to be worth the time. Thanks for the work and thanks for sharing it
Forum: Reloading Equipment
looks like it will work, just one question, on the locator what did it start out as before the mod. was it for a 9mm, or 223
Forum: Reloading Equipment

Forum: Reloading Equipment
Pee Wee I called Dillon today and they told me the same thing, I just cant figure out why it will work on a 650 and not a 550. I may have to try something just to see if it will work.
