45-70 Case Feeder Tube
Quote from Reloader on September 27, 2016, 6:45 amI picked up a 45-70. I ordered my caliber conversion kit. When I started doing my change over from my last caliber I found there was no plastic bushing or the metal part that screws in from underneath.
After looking at it I decided it may not require them for this cartridge.
it does feed them but (there is always a but) I found the tube that comes down from the case feeder is to small for the 45-70 case to go through it.Am I missing parts? is there a different tube I need for the case feeder?

Quote from Reloader on September 27, 2016, 2:30 pmDue to the very large case rim, 45-70 requires a magnum case feed assembly, #11069. This is an entirely separate case insertion assembly, so you remove the existing one from your machine and replace it. This includes an appropriate case feed tube.

I will have to think about that, I will only be loading 100 at a time (all the cases I have and this thing kicks a little so I do not see me sitting at the shooting table and blowing off 100 at a time ha ha.
Thanks again

Quote from Reloader on September 27, 2016, 5:38 pmI still am wondering if I am missing parts from my NEW 45-70 caliber conversion kit. There is not a Case Feed Body Bushing or Case Feed Arm Bushing in my kit I purchased. It was sealed when I received it and I purchased it new.
If they are not normally included (they may be included in the 100$ additional kit I have to purchased to make the case feeder work) than why is the 45-70 caliber conversion kit 10$ extra in the first place, less parts and cost more??????
I think I purchased the caliber conversion on eBay, it ways it still includes your No BS guarantee. I find it easier to find what I am looking for on eBay. I have a hard time finding what I am looking for on you new Dillon website. When I have your part number I am great on your site (like you gave me in your first reply) but without it I get frustrated trying to find anything on your site.
