    Dillon Re-Lubing

    I noticed my 550b was getting harder to cycle so I gave it a good Powder Blasting, which resulted in a super smooth throw. My problem now is I cannot for the life of me recall what lube I used on the main cylinder. Any suggestions?

    Dillon suggests 30 weight motor oil, I believe. I use FP-10, but any oil should do.

      Awesome I think I have 30 weight around here somewhere! I love how the reloader is blue again after a good bath. Time for some 10mm reloading action. Thanks!

        Powdered graphite here and there works wonders too.

          I blasted out my Squaredeal B a few weeks ago while cleaning the garage.
          I then swept the garage and emptied it into the trash can.
          Next I wheeled the can up to the top of the driveway for trash day.
          The next night I went out to do something and noticed all 3 retaining pins were missing from the shell plate.
          I searched all over the bench and they were nowhere to be found. I can only assume they are now buried in the local landfill.
          DOH!!

              For a lost item it really doesn't fall under their warranty. You'll sometimes get someone on the phone who will give you the parts free, but don't count on it everytime.
