Broke my 550 today

[Rammit]

Sizing .308 today and this happened, I guess I will get to try the Dillon no bs warranty. Press has loaded thousands of rounds in the 10+ years I have owned it.

Well, I think you're supposed to gently press the brass into the die, not necessarily "rammit" so....

I see what the problem is.




The casting broke.

User error. You were supposed to paint it green first.

A little JB Weld and it'll be good as new...

I hope so, because I could use few upgrades and other misc small parts and with shipping these days…

Dillon will take care of you. Best warranty in the business.

They even warranty stuff that was bought second hand.

The 550 is a great machine.

Don't mention your stage name to them…

Rub a little dirt on it and get back to work!



Too Soon?

They warrantied my 30 year old 550 when the bell crank cracked last year. No questions asked and they included the tool to center the ram during assembly. I don't even want to think about how many rounds I've loaded, but I did manage to wear out 2 Glocks shooting nothing but my reloads. Compare that to RCBS who refused to warranty a 6 month old Rock Chucker with a massive casting flaw that caused the frame to crack.

I might suggest a Forster Co-AX for resizing...
