Wow! Quite the operation. Good Job!

Luckily I don't have too much of this brass. Around 20 or 30 cases. I had already seperated them a while back and now I know why I did lol. I must've had trouble before and then sorted them. The...

I agree. It only happened on one case and then after that I stopped. I am in the process now, hand lubing them with the lee lube and so far so good. Going a little slower and adjusted the decapping...

On the Wilson set, Would it be better to get the stnd. decappin pin or the .057 flash hole pin?

Those look really stout! Page bookmarked. I don't think they will work with the hornady dies though. The lee universal dies is pretty affordable and should have one anyway. I may go the hand...

Yep they sure are. They have a red coating around the primer pocket.

Pretty sure. Couple shots of one shot, roll around, and a couple squirts more. Even tried the second with some lee lube put on by hand.
I'll have some time later today to mess around and I'll use...

Thanks for the advice so far! I have read that some of this brass does or can have an off center flash hole. I don't have alot of this brass, 20pcs or so, but have read that it is pretty good brass....

Thanks for the reply Winger Ed. I had the primer pin set pretty deep. So low it actually pushed the neck and shoulder into the body of the case :shock: I ended up using my lee trim gauge inserted and...

This was the most applicable sub forum that I figured my problem could be posted. Anyway.... I was trying to deprime and resize some PSD brass and had trouble getting the primers out. I am using a...

User of the zilla "Desert Blend" here as well!

This^^^^^ I know this is an old post, but I too was getting wrinkled bullets. Mold was heated up and pouring at temps of 730-750. Still wrinkled boolits. After the the spru frosted I was cutting and...

I had good success putting my Lyman/Ideal 45 in the oven @200 for a little while and then using blue shop towels to wipe everything out and down.

I find that using old computer power supply boxes work well for these units. You can gut them out and cut out for your PID controller. I've built two this way and have about $35 into mine.

Wow! Now that is a beefy table!

Started off with a single stage. Even though I like the workout, my body will appreciate the Dillon!

As pointed out you have the 550 frame and the 450 other parts. Other than the slide out tool head the other features that make it a 550 are the automatic priming system and automatic powder system....

Makes sense. I thought maybe they came out with a different version. I prefer Old English for my speakers and cabinets. I'm still gonna keep an eye out so I can try this bullet recipie ��

I need to ask: Why did they discontinue the liquid wax?

Awesome topic! I am going to start loading for 45 colt and gonna have to try these out!

I second this. The wax/oil base won't mix well with water. When dry tumbling I just pour a little Nufinish right on top of the media, usually lizard bedding from the pet store.

I recently picked up a used 450 that has most of the 550 upgrades. Needed to get a few parts like the small primer cup and punch and their chat representative was very helpful. I am super excited to...

I have yet to buy from GB, but look all the time. All the before mentioned items is what I look for as a buyer. I want to see alot of pics and a good honest description. If I have a question about...

That's what is neat about chatting, the real time responses. I can see where the time change can have an impact.

The Lee Anniversary Kit was my first introduction into the reloading world and I still use it some 25 years later. No problem and no breakage yet.
