Help with XL 650 pin

bwframe · Jul 9, 2017

At the end of a hurried loading session yesterday, something caught my eye, falling from the right side. I assumed it was a case jamb up in the case feeder and brass was falling.

Looked up and the feeder was fine, looked down and found this pin on the floor. (Next to case gage for size.)

I verified everything was working and set, loaded one last round and covered the machine. All rounds passed inspection were tossed in the bag and I was off to the range to meet friends.

I did take a cursory glance and could not find where this pin came from, again a hurried one.

Anyone recognise what this pin came out of?

Thanks in advance.

Went down and did a quick look, did not see a pin like that. Granted I didn't spend more than a minute

ZbornacSVT will most likely be able to answer your question. He's a Dillon dealer and a really nice guy. I think he's closed on Monday, however.

Thanks. I can't find any pins missing in the powder drop or case feed. I'm beginning to wonder if this pin is from something else? Possibly found it's way into and empty case and then the case feed?

I've loaded 250 rounds and all measurements check out. 250 more to go today.

That's the "suck" pin. Now that it is gone, you might actually HIT the target this time!!! :):

I just checked in my XL650 spare parts kit that Dillon sells, and there is not anything like that in the kit.
