Shoulder Washer
Quote from Reloader on May 13, 2013, 2:59 pmHave a 550b and have read about folks breaking the white shoulder washer on the failsafe rod. Most have these have been attributed to the washer being to tight. I have the opposite problem as mine does not seem to want to stay in the bracket no matter how I adjust the orientation of the rod. Is there a home remedy for this??

I am beginning to wonder about Dillon Product Quality Control.
Have they become "to big" and quality control is dropping to meet demand?

Mine was rather old and stiff and was very difficult to remove and reinsert. Ordered a couple of new ones from Dillon and they work great. Other than that I had problems with the priming system where I could only load about 10 primers in the magazine. If I tried to load more they would jam up and I'd have primers all over the place. Found that there must have been a kink or something in the tube and finally one got jammed good in there. New one on order, hope it solves the problem. Right now I am placing primers in the cup with a pair of locksmith tweezers...royal PITA! Sure enjoy reloading though. Also load on a Lee Pro 1000 as well.
