I am loading .223 Rem. for my son's Mini-14 & found a great load for it using IMR-4350/26gr. When I load it by hand and use a drop-tube with my funnel I have room to place and maintain the bullet for seating.

The problem is when I use my Dillon RL550 the powder just starts to overflow the case mouth and either some spills off or the bullet crushes the case mouth when I attempt to seat.

Does anyone know if Dillon sells a Drop-Tube type of attachment that can be added to the powder station so that the powder compresses and leaves me room as it does when I individually load them? I tried using 25.7gr. which worked but was not as accurate.

Thanks. Wayne

This came up awihle ago in another thread, and I think what one guy did was put a vibrator on his 550 to get more powder in.

They were loading varget in this case.
