I have not used it but there are many good reviews of it. Specifically the Blackout powder. It’s the one I’ve searched out and read reviews. But there are plenty for the other powders.

You didn’t load up a Red Dot equivalent. You loaded up a Clays equivalent. Red Dot and Clays are not the same powder. They may have the same properties but loads are different. Unless the powder...

Charge weights are exactly the same. They’re talking about shotgun reloading bushings. It won’t be an issue for metallic reloading.

There’s a reason I bought a case of Promo. There are better powders but Promo will do it all. For those not aware Promo is Red Dot in large quantities.

Where have you been for the past few months? This didn’t all of a sudden happen. And it’s not the first time its happened. I fee sorry for the people that have been planning on reloading but...
375449 is just like the RCBS 35-200. If you don’t start w/ it you will eventually end up there. I don’t shoot my 375 H&H much. But when I do it’s the 375449.
I use Dillon case lube w/ pistol brass. It’s not needed but it does make sizing easier.

I use Ballistol for everything. It’s non-toxic and can be used on all gun materials. It doesn’t gum up in the winter and it stays where it’s sprayed. It’s not the best at any one thing. But...

Dillon does not offer the No BS warranty on every product. The 1050 being the most well known of these. They do have multi year warranties on these products. So like I said, call them and see what...

The tumblers and some other items don’t carry this warranty. Which isn’t surprising since motors are going to fail. The motor manufactures don’t usually offer warranties so I don’t see why Dillon...

If you read the description on Lee’s site it tells you exactly what it is. It’s the parts to push the bullet through a factory crimp die, not included, and catch it at the end.

You bought a used unit that apparently had problems, which is why it was being sold, and you’re blaming Dillon? Just asking because I’d be mad at the guy a I bought it from more than the...

A quick YouTube search when you want to fix anything is worth the time and effort. Since no manufacturer produces actual repair manuals it’s the next best thing.

It’s why I changed mine to a roller handle. A lot more comfortable and it doesn’t chew up the web between my fingers. W/ swaging I eventually start using the tube so at the bottom of the stroke I...

350 has been discontinued. But he still has stock of it. So buy it now if you need it. He’s also getting samples of a replacement so there will eventually be another comparable version for sale.

You can buy X-Lox through White Label Lubes. May have to add mineral spirits to make it the same consistency as branded Alox.
