550 modifications
Quote from Reloader on July 30, 2008, 8:50 pmWhats with these aftermarket items to take the slop out of 550 Shellplate and Toolhead? Are they worthwhile? One would think that once the shell is in the die that would take away the play. Anyone in the know please jump in.

Quote from Reloader on August 19, 2008, 3:31 amI added .010 brass shim stock at the base of the toolhead to reduce slop, this did reduce my OAL variance by .05 and it's alot cheaper than some of the other stuff

Quote from Reloader on September 14, 2008, 7:01 amwait.. you have an OAL varience of 5 HUNDRETHS of an inch?? .05? I'm assuming you mean .005 right? Even that I'd be suprised at. My 550 doesnt change more than .003 from round to round and usually within .001-.002.
