UniqueTek

I was reading through a thread and there was a mention of UniqueTek, so naturally I had to check it out. It looks like they have some interesting products.
I've been contemplating getting the "M" type powder funnels for my Dillon 550, theirs's seemed to be reasonably priced.

Ther toolhead kit is something I might consider; I have seen other systems offered but they altered the press.

Thoughts on this.
 
kenhwind,

I've suggested it to friends and on this site a couple of times. It gets rid of the slop from the not too tight joint between the tool head, press and ram. Doing this allows one to more accurately center or float dies. I installed the kit on over 20 of the 550 tool heads I use. If you get one, you may wish to get a reamer for the tool head rather than the drill bit included with the installation kit. The reamer will follow the hole so you can hand expand the hole, but I'd recommend a drill press if you use the drill bit. A better holder for the reamer and tap would be nice as well. I don't have a recommendation for one.

They have a number of handy gadgets and tools. I've never tried the micrometer metering heads for Dillon powder bars, but would consider them. Many parts available for different presses besides the Dillon's.

Link to the site is here.

I have the MR Dial on my powder bars when they were available on eBay. Not precise but I made up a chart, so I can preset my powder bar and be reasonably close.

I was loading some 9mm Largo, new brass, so I was not resizing the whole case, coal was sporadic, it usually is.

When I checked out their site the toolhead kits were out of stock.
