Dillon 1050 with bullet feeder
01/08/2017
For those of you questioning if a bullet feeder is worth it, eat ramen for a few more weeks....
amazing how much faster the process is especially loading 223 for blasting ammo.
9mm is a breeze as well
now off to get my mark 7 next

for those of you who want to see a powder charge
this back up camera and lcd for under $28 works great. also allows me to see the bullet seated as well from the bullet feeder.
no more leaning over straining to see powder drop

if you already have a laptop you can also just use a usb Webcam. I have the Microsoft LifeCam Studio 1080P HD webcam I use on a mini tripod for a few reloading tasks. Like focused on the needle of my Scott Parker Tuned Lyman M5 so you dont have to bend over and see if the needle is dead on or for checking powder in the cases on my XL650.

Are those Mr Bulletfeeders ?
If so I love them, they make loading WAY easier !!!
They don't work so well with semi or full wad cutters, GSI is way more consistent.
These 1050's are a fantastic machine to use, once set up. Setting up is the pain but then it's easy loading. I love mine.

They are great
On occasion it's easier to basically follow the worm of primers to more quickly feed the primers into the tube. But they work very well, I'm just to impatient.
