I'm prepping to load my first shouldered rifle rounds. Soon after I got to loading handgun only, back in 2011, I bought a small cylinder for my RCBS Uniflow. Made it much better for small charges such as in 9mm than the standard cylinder. I need to change back to the standard cylinder now for the larger charges. Damned if I couldn't figure out how get that little plunger into that large cylinder, without looking on line to see you drop it through the top of the hopper! So far so good? NO! In the process of putting the bushing that holds the measuring stem into the body of the cylinder it won't tighten down. It tightens, almost, then slips the threads in the cylinder body. THAT hole/threads are bigger, by about .018", than in the small measuring cylinder. WTH? Those threads, in that large cylinder, should be pristine seeing as it was only used for a short time, and only switched once. I would have known if I'd stripped the threads TAKING IT OUT? And the paint on the threads of the bushing aren't damaged.
I've come to the conclusion that my standard cylinder is TU. Any body close that has an extra standard cylinder that's in good shape?
Just for the heck of it. The parts diagram...
