case flaring when loading 50ae on a dillon 550b

[D.R.E.]

Anyone able to get the case to flare?

Even with the powder die cranked all the way down to the shellplate I can't seem to get any flare at all.

I could just take a few .01s off the damn die w/ a lathe, but that's probably not really the right approach.

Thanks!


[Yeah I know. Don't worry it's for a 50ae Freedom Arms ]

I'd call Dillon. Hard to say over the internet. Are you using Dillon Dies for 50AE? Right powder funnel?

Dillon doesn't make them for 50ae. I bought the RCBS ones off of Brian's site. I'm using the powder funnel that came w/ the caliber conversion, so hopefully it's the right one.
