I guess that the MP Select Mini was discontinued as they haven't got close to being in stock. It is a bit of a blessing as I really haven't had the time to learn a new endeavor.Ohio3Wheels wrote:With the 3D printer you can fiddle with an OpenScad file to get a lid with a tight fit.

Make smoke,
So you're saying that the actual powder drop process shortens the life of the case? Is that due to internal "rubbing" of the die into the case mouth? Interesting as I've always used the dipper but have the Auto Drum and a RCBS Uniflow, one of which I had planned on setting up for my 25-06 rounds.Ranch Dog wrote:I received my Deluxe Powder Measure and Bench Stand from Titan today. I've always said that I wouldn't replace my Perfect Powder Measure, but it sure looks long in the tooth sitting next to the youngster!
I decided to buy the Deluxe because it uses the Auto Drums and I'm setting up a bunch of drums, over 30, for the different cartridges and loads that I shoot. I figured this measure would be a heck of a lot easier than the drum setup on the press and end the case wear I've encountered when trying to fine tune the drum. Even with the charging die and Auto Drum properly setup, about five cycles is all bottlenecked cartridge case can suffer through. If the case is freshly annealed, two times. This speed up the process of working through all the drums and save damaging some hard to find cases.
It's the setup process, fine-tuning the drum for the desired charge, working against the internal spring. It will fold/roll the mouth of the case inward. I would not recommend more than two cycles on a given case without resizing it. Once the mouth starts rolling in, you have lost the case.5akman wrote:So you're saying that the actual powder drop process shortens the life of the case?
