SDB
Quote from Reloader on October 22, 2007, 11:52 pmJust got my SDB, love it. What a difference between it and a loadmaster. Like the difference between night and day. One question, whats the easiest way to empty the powder measure without making a mess ? Plan on buying a bunch of caliper conv. kits as soon as I can afford them. Another question, why don't you have the SDB set up to load a 30 Carbine, not much difference between it a 357 mag, other than a tapered case. would be a good candidate for the SDB, and probably could sell a few to people that loaded pistol cartridges. thanks for the outstanding product, Allen

Quote from Reloader on October 31, 2007, 7:37 pmThe easiest way to empty the powder measure is to first detach the failsafe return rod, then remove the retaining screw that anchors the upsdie down L shaped pise to the bottom of the powder measure.
Put a funnel into the opening in the powder container, and pour the powder out of the measure back into the original factory container.
30Carbine is a tapered case, and requires more effort to size than the SDB can handle over the long term.

Quote from Reloader on December 21, 2007, 5:52 pmTo empty the powder measue: I first loosen the bolt attaching it then I pull the retaining clip holding actuater to the rod. Once it's free carefully lift it up and off of the SDB. I carefully pour the powder back into its original container. Once this is done I put the spout where the powder is deployed to the shell into the top of powder container. Then I cycle the mechinism a few times to get what was ready to go into the next shell back into the powder container.
