How the Super 1050 Works
Stations 1 - 8 (counterclockwise)
toolhead and dies cut away for clarity
Station 1:
Empty cases are automati-
cally inserted into the shellplate via the
electric casefeeder.
Station 2:
Here the spent cartridge
cases are resized and deprimed.
Station 3:
This station is totally unique.
The case is supported from the inside
and slightly expanded (not belled) while
simultaneously a swager is driven into
the primer pocket to remove any crimp.
Station 4:
A new primer is installed at
this station. The spring driven primer
slide is extremely smooth. The steel
shrouded primer magazine is capped
with an electronic Early Warning Device
to let you know when you’re down to ap-
proximately three primers.
Station 5:
Here the case is belled and
powder is dropped by the case-activated
powder measure. It is extremely accurate
and will not drop powder unless a case
is present. Dillon Precision offers an op-
tional accessory to be utilized with the
automatic powder measure at this station
– Dillon’s Low Powder Sensor provides
an audible and visual reminder when it’s
time to refill the powder reservoir.
Station 6:
This station is open to allow
for case inspection.
Station 7:
The bullet is seated to its
proper depth at this station.
Station 8:
In this station, the bullet is
crimped into place. The cartridge is then
automatically ejected into a collection
bin.
Your dies have been adjusted at the
factory. Before you change anything, try
it the way it is, once you thoroughly un-
derstand the machine’s operation, make
whatever adjustments to the dies you feel
necessary.
Reminder: There may be some varia-
tion due to components.
Station 5 - Here the case mouth is belled
and powder dispensed.
Station 7 - In this station, the bullet is seated
to its proper depth.
Station 8 - Here the case is crimped and
then ejected out of the shellplate with the
next pull of the handle.
Station 3 - Here the case mouth is ex-
panded while a rod supports the case base
for swaging.
Station 1 - The casefeed plunger inserts the
case into the shellplate.
Station 2 - Here, spent cartridge cases are re-
sized and deprimed.
