1050 Fail Safe Rod on 650
Quote from Reloader on April 18, 2016, 4:23 amBased on looking at the two manuals for the reloaders; I would guess not.
The 650 fail safe has an bend about midway. The 1050 appears to be straight. I know the old fail safe rod that goes with the early powder measures do not work (well) with the new powder measures.I suppose for the short run you could use a 1050 rod (checking on each down stroke that the powder lock link assembly returned the powder bar, but I would not use it for a long term solution. Just call Dillon explain the 650 is lost/bent. They will ship a new one.

Why don't you do this with the 650 rod or make it where it utilizes a clip instead of the stupid bend?
