Fully Automated 300BLKOUT Production - Dillon Precision RL1100 & Mark7 AutoDrive

[@2whl4re]

You might need a louder shop vac.

[@SpartanArmament]

2whl4re LOL! They were fresh out of those!

[@lfeco]

You can buy flexible smooth interior hose that would solve the buildup problem. Great setup.

[@SpartanArmament]

Thank You! Please forward a link where I can pick one up.

@@SpartanArmament Would this work? www.mcmaster.com/dust-collector-hose/smooth-flow-flexible-duct-hose-for-dust/

[@300balake_3]

That's sweet. Only down side is neck turning all those cases

[@jasonposten9481]

If you use the right ones you won’t have to.

[@thelittledetailscr7231]

Why would you neck turn 300blk?

[@coolbeenes8308]

Man, I wish you were my neighbor!

[@SpartanArmament]

LOL!

[@HappSsack]

I'm sure you looked at the fast and friendly drive.. Why the Mark Vll drive? Maybe video on drives? Also a video ondie choices. Thanks great videos

[@SpartanArmament]

NarrowIsThe Gate So I’ll be honest I had not considered the F&FB option prior as I was only considering the Mark7 or Ammobot. My bench was custom built and it’s high. Had I used the Ammobot my press would’ve sit far too high for me to ever keep an eye on powder and other functions of the press while in motion. I love the Mark7 and love the GUI interface it’s advanced and far ahead all others.

What is the last die on your tool head doing? The one with the long decapping pin. Thanks for the videos.

[@SpartanArmament]

Full length resize. I left the decapping pin although the decap truly happens in Station #2.

[@kentdurham2716]

Ok, you’re hired.

[@CHIBA280CRV]

Awesome 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@SWAGGER1776]

🤩

[@HappSsack]

will you go over your die setup on the trimmer?

[@SpartanArmament]

NarrowIsThe Gate Sorry for the delay in response. The actual trimmer die is a Whidden Gun Works 300BLKOUT Steel Trimmer.

[@SteveMasonTV]

Is that just straight PVC coming off the trimmer shroud before the flexi hose? Looks gread

[@SpartanArmament]

Steve Mason Correct just straight up PVC and then the corrugated hose. I am going to try and plumb PVC back to the vacuum. The hose collects the shavings and it clogs. It’s a pain in the ass to clean.

[@SteveMasonTV]

@@SpartanArmament The shorted corrugated possible is best. I havent figured out how to run mine yet either. That toolhead looks great - I have already purchased the Dillon though. I am thinking of doing something like this for dust collection and maybe that will prevent some of the clogs kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZ3GXpeid657qpo

[@mikeyates1785]

Did you install this Autodrive your self? I assume it works same for the reloading process?

[@SpartanArmament]

Yes I did and you are correct. Read the manual and take your time.

[@charleshetrick3152]

What are you using for lube?

[@SpartanArmament]

BrassJuice

[@Fabrication-fo2dm]

Whats the cost and whats the shop vac for

[@scotttipps8155]

Shopvac is to pickup the small brass pieces from the trimming process

[@SpartanArmament]

$5,500 or so. Shop Vac is to collect the brass shavings from trimming down the cases.

[@roquri]

What type of cutter are you using? I have the Honey Badger setup, and for 223 it works great. But have issues doing 300 blk. My 3/8 endmill is a touch too small, and even with a boring bar with a chip breaker insert it is hit or miss getting the speed and feed right without wrapping brass around the shaft.

[@SpartanArmament]

I am using a $13.00 End Mill from eBay. Here are the specs on it below. I don’t have issues with brass at the cutter for me it is the clogging at the vacuum that is a pain point. CARBIDE END MILL ALUMINUM 3/8 DIA 1" LOC 3 FLUTE 35 DEGREE RHS RHC 2-1/2 OAL Questions for you: - What Toolhead are you using? - What Cutting Die are you using? - How much of the trim window on the cutting die is visible once the die/Toolhead is setup?

[@roquri]

@@SpartanArmament I am using the 300 Black toolhead for a Dillon 650 by GSI International, along with their 2 trim die setup. My window is about 9/16 of an inch. But to hit the trim length, there is very little gap between the cutter and the "bottom" of the window. The cutter almost touches the die. Crap, just looked at my current setup, and it's set for 223! So take the window dimension with trepidation, it's probably not that big.

[@chriswaddell9750]

Spartan, been a while! I finally got around to acquiring all these goodies for my rl 1100. What is the final die in this set up? Dillon sizer?

[@SpartanArmament]

Awesome that you got all the parts! Yes Sir it is just the Dillion 300BLK Carbide resizer. Of my entire time reloading this setup took the most patience. Take your time and pack your patience.

[@hectorvasquez5957]

Which trimmer is that one ?

[@andycovington8891]

That is a Bosch trimmer, go to the Mark 7 website you can get the spec’s they state they have them in stock, but other postings indicate they don’t but on back ordered. Bobcat armament indicated they have few instock

[@SpartanArmament]

Hector Vasquez this whole trimmer is built around the Honey Badger Trimmer Kit from Fast and Friendly Brass which mates with a Bosch 1617EVS Router which can be found on Amazon. I bought it all separate although you could get package as Andy mentioned from vendors.

[@poohead8022]

......I thought I was cool with my Hornady lock n load 🤣

[@raymonddoan1102]

what is that bosch piece?

[@SpartanArmament]

Bosch Router 1617evs

[@beantown_billy2405]

That's kind of cool I guess

[@SpartanArmament]

I think so too! :) thanks for watching!

[@The10thManRules]

Hey, WTF! I slipped $2k under your front door mat two months ago for 2500 300B 110 Tac-TX with nickel casings. Where's my ammo?!

[@grapeshot23]

Does that thing chamfer the inside of the case mouth?

[@charleshetrick3152]

No.

[@redbridge889]

Do you think it's illegal to operate this in an RV in the state of Texas?

[@SpartanArmament]

I don’t think so. I believe you can reload anywhere you want. Not an expert, get professional advice if in doubt.

[@KKhhoorrnniittee]

Is that you, Walter White? (((-!

[@joshpettit82]

What do you use for lube? I’ve been using one shot when processing .223 and I keep getting dimples on the shoulders from too much lube. But when I use less I get stuck cases pretty frequently. I appreciate any suggestions you have.

[@luketimmer6108]

I'm probably a bit late but I'd try lightly lubing every other case. Works for all my rifle cases

[@mjay4700]

Anyone else mute the audio for this video and play that "Pee Wee Herman Breakfast Machine" song over it?
