This guy creates and manufactures some AWESOME add ons for the Dillon presses. This rotocam actuator really helps smooth the shell plate indexing. I'm usually pretty good about keeping things lubed, but both the indexing system and the cam follower rely on plastic sliding on plastic. Nothing good can come from that...just but this thing and then go hunt for the snowshooze cam follower. You need them both. Oh...the new primer switch he just developed is well engineered and extremely useful.

The part works as intended and that’s why it’s getting 3 stars. However, the slots for the bolts weren’t even straight (see pictures), they look like they were made with a router and endmill bit. It had several very sharp edges, the slots had aluminum shavings in them, and I don’t like the design idea of using a roll pin to attach the bearing to block. If that roll pin ever worked itself loose, there would be no way of reattaching it to the block. Entirely Crimson offers the same product, for the same price, which I bought as a comparison and the difference is night and day. The holes are perfectly straight, all the edges are chamfered, and the bearing is bolted down. I don’t recommend this product, however I have used this sellers other products which work great.

This set-up cured the cursed powder jump on short cases on the rcbs2k . The shell plate still works fine . I have loaded several thousand rounds since installing that little burger and it works, so stop reading and order the dang thing . I think this is the first time I have every received anything from Alaska, how cool is that. Heck the R&D was worth $15 . The shipping was fast to-boot.

High quality workmanship of this product. Fit precisely and the roller set up makes the indexer work very smoothly with not a trace of indexer jump whatsoever. Setup and adjustment was easily accomplished in just a matter of a few seconds. Will definitely reduce indexer cam completely. Especially nice for high volume reloaders like myself. Powder spilling seems to be lessened from the smoother cam operation. I am very pleased with how well this addition to my Dillon progressive has smoothed the indexer operation. I should have bought this months ago when I first found it on line. Very much a gotta have item.

I love my XL650 like anyone else that reloads. Dillon makes the best reloading presses but like anything some things can use a little upgrade. I don't have to lube the advance anymore and seems a lot smoother with no friction. Surprised that Dillon didn't offer this, that would have increased the purchase price and with all the other presses out there it would be wise to be competative. But the other brands have far more needs for their well needed design changes besides up grades.
