  1. .45-60. Brass is easily formed and bullets easy to find. While the other two are theoretically offered finding anything for the .45-75 and .50-95 is a real challenge. Almost bought a .50-95 that was hanging on the wall at a local gun shop last year. After investigating and finding how hard it is to find brass, dies and bullets I gave up on the idea.
  2. The drag queens doing The Last Supper was also a crowd pleaser.
  3. The question was in response to Texas Maverick's question. Hopefully he has the same press. The way my 650 is set-up is: Station 1 - Resize, deprime Station 2 - Power drop, prime Station 3 - Powder check die Station 4 - Bullet feeder Station 5 - Seat/crimp die On a 550 you cannot run a powder check as it only has four stations.
  4. See Toranado's post. What press do you have?
  5. With a case feeder and bullet feeder all you do is pull the handle at a leisurely pace and listen for the low powder and low primer sensors.
  6. The mini works fine and I have four magazines left over from when I used one. The only downside is it takes quite a bit of time to manually fill the magazines. Once filled you can zip right along.
  7. Same as the old ones. Remingtons are known for having plastic flash around the primer holes. Remington primers are shorter than most other primers so when you reload them the first time with another brand of primer there is often a problem seating them.
  8. You have to define what you mean by this. What new Remington shells? Remington makes all kinds of shells.
  9. PLUS, sometime in the past 15 years my computer started using thumbprints to enter the password. I have no idea what it is.
  10. SHOTGUN AMMUNITION - Shotgun size must be number 4 lead birdshot or smaller for all events (no steel or plated shot). If these were, in fact, shells using steel shot the MD should have DQ'd or MDQ'd the shooter.
  11. Abilene should be taken to the woodshed and beaten savagely for resurrecting this dead dog.
  12. I also have a Frankfort Arsenal X-10. They have a bullet feeder but it is not nearly as versatile as the Double Alpha. So I made an adapter and attached a Double Alpha to the X-10.
  13. Hundreds of people. I have posted photos of the ones on my 1050 and 650 several times. The Double Alpha stepped funnel is specifically made for the Dillon. Here is one mounted on a 1050. It mounts the same way except it is on the left side on a 650. The 750 requires a little more work to install because of the way the powder measure mounts on the 750. The fix is on YouTube and Double Alphas website.
  14. Just to make sure everyone is on the same page. Slix use to make a shotshell checker that just checked case size. Then they came out with the model that tapers the crimped portion of the shell . It is much larger. If you ammo does not drop FREELY right up to the rim in the new style checker then chances are it won't shuck well. This is the new one. The old one was shorter and was just the knurled section at the base of this one.
  15. This was in response to this same question a while back. "I've emailed Winchester and asked them about using 231 for shotshell. The reply was a straight forward "It is not suitable for shotshell reloading." They didn't elaborate on why just a plain "not suitable." I have enough 231 for about 16,000 .45 s. I now have friends! A bright side to everything." (I was not the emailer to Winchester. This is a copy of a post on a shotgun loading website.) Generally when there is NO loading data for what you are trying to do that is a pretty good indication it won't work.
