Reloading Dies

Post by BigAl52 » Sun Mar 21, 2021 6:05 pm

Im looking for a Dillon Square Deal caliber conversion kit for 45 ACP. I have looked quite a few places there all out of stock. Found some on ebay for 3 times retail price and Im not paying that. Trying to help out my step daughter. I gave her a Dillon loader. If anyone sees some let me know

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Dillon makes or has somebody make their own dies/tooling. Is it on backorder from Dillon? I have the Dillon 550B.

Hey Al, I’m a Dillon dunce, never used any of their products. Is the conversion kit you’re looking for universal to all the models? I see Dillon products for sale on our local page from time to time and will watch for a 45 acp conversion kit.

Hatch they are not universal to all machines. This needs to fit the Square Deal Machine. That machine only loads pistol calibers and will not do the rifle.

Unfortunately like all things related to shooting, it's a sign of the times. On our local trader things like this go quickly, unless well overpriced.

Ya that gouging in these kind of times just makes me boil. Supply and demand is one thing but gouging is another. People that do that businesses I remember and when things return to norm my money isnt spent there.

That’s too bad, there’s a 45 acp conversion kit listed now but it’s for a 650. $100
