GSI Bullet Feeder System on Dillon XL 650
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- Check out my new GSI Bullet Feeder, I no longer need to manually place bullets on each case. The nice thing about the GSI unit is that it automatically delivers a bullet to the seating station, plus I still keep my powder check and crimping stations separate on my Dillon XL 650. This was the biggest feature for me personally.
In this video , I show you the entire setup conversion, and run a few 9mm rounds as well.
Where I got mine...the company website:

The best $500 you'll invest into your reloading system.
I found that now my full attention can be on seating the primer properly and checking the powder in each case, which are the two single most important things when reloading. And obviously the ability to run 3 times faster means more time at the range.
Excellent camera job and a very detailed video of the step-by-step process. Well done!
Great bullet feeder but in switching over your dies to the GSI feeder toolhead you should set up the dies as you would have in even a new Dillon toolhead because you are assuming that the GSI toolhead is machined to exactly the same height and thickness as the Dillon toolhead is. It doesn't take a lot of time but it ensures that you are precise with all the die settings.
Were you as bummed as I was that GSI has quit manufacturing these bullet feeders?
Just read about these, did a youtube search and there you were. Nice video, well done - thanks!
Sweet set up, hope you keep making videos and that your around when I get mine.
Dude your right arm is huge, better start using your left to pull the lever LOL
Cool vid and AWESOME set up you have there.
My kitchen isn't as clean as your reloading room!!!
OliverCloseoff69, LMAO..ya its the camera angle. ha ha. Thanks man
Is it on sale@@brassmen7464
Next thing you need is a hydraulic actuator to pull the lever
2,600+ with all the sensors....
Wow, what a monster!
Professional all the way from the equipment review right dow to the editing and camera work. Thank's for sharing sir.
While I can appreciate the tape trick.. I do not think I would ever change the tool holder without resetting all my dies..
That’s amazing I definitely need to add this to my 650xl
Upside down bullet in the first bullet stack there. Nice
Nice set up but you should only tighten the lock ring with a case in the die holding it perfectly concentric. I would also take the 5 minutes to reset my dies.
The GSI web site shows the GSI bullet feeder directly mounted on the XL650. You have yours mounted on a separate post. Why the difference?
Make more videos Please
Your shit is Tight
You do a great job
Hey man! Really nice set up. A very informational how much would that entire set up run?
Good video. Can I ask where you got your bench?
The echo In that room would drive me nuts with all the clanging going on lol.
You have an awesome set up! Any chance you'd be interested in doing a video of your work area?
Great video
Thank you for a great video!
How is that working for you the past 6 years? How does that compare with the modern mr bullet feeder? what kind of casings are you using? are those the SS3? Do they need a special Dies?
butlerbobby, asked: The GSI web site shows the GSI bullet feeder directly mounted on the XL650. You have yours mounted on a separate post. Why the difference?
Answer: They haven't updated there website with new photos, anything shipped after April 2014 will have the post as shown in my video above. Except it ships in the color Black, I painted mine blue.
The reason actually, they told me is the weight of having the bullet feeder directly on the toolhead gave them problems so they changed the design. :)
Brassmen74 - I really like your set-up. Could you give me a general description of your bench and cabinets. My son has several guns, and I want to get him this XL 650 for his birthday AND the layout you have is very nice. Thank-you. Keep us informed with additional videos, I really appreciate them. Thanks
look at pintrest.com search reloading benches
Do you have a reloading licence? Or gunpowder permit?
So if you were to guess or if you know for sure. What's the ballpark of how much this whole set up for 9mm costs you? Everything together.
If your just changing out the head assy, why don’t you just use lock tite between the dye and set nut?
Great info!.. One question though. I was just looking on the web site to purchase one and one of the menu items is the grain of bullet. The problem with this I press anything from 115 to 147 grain depending if I am making rounds for my Kimber1911, Glock 19 or my Kel TeK ( all 9mm). How have you handled that? I don't want to by something that restricts me to one particular grain or have to invest in multiple setups.
So it has been a year since you posted this.
Have you had any issues of misfeeds or jams?
Slavek Kasper its been pretty good. The odd jam here and there, like anything else.
@brassmen7464 Are you still using your GSI bullet feeder? I purchased mine around 2011-2013, maybe 2014. It never worked that great. They quit selling them and wouldn't provide any support. Not even look at a video and tell you what was wrong. Wasted money and got screwed by them. Sort of self-inflicted. When I bought it Mr Bullet Feeder was out but I thought since the owner of GSI had been at Dillon something like 17 years, it would be good to go. I should have bought the Mr Bullet Feeder.
How much did your whole set up cost in general.
I'm looking for a table or workbench to put this on, what would you recommend for the whole setup?
What model husky bench do you have? Would like to have one that is stainless also.
Now you need a brobot to pull the handle for you.
If you don't mind me asking, what is the screen behind your head @1:52 for? Just curious :)
its a T.V
+Rich Gilliam lol. I was expecting some fancy touchscreen control interface and your like "it's a TV..." lol. nice setup regardless!
Do you really need to label the bin “finished product “ ? Seems a bit weird
Can you give an update on the GSI Bullet feeder, I can not find it anywhere, GSI International does not have it on their website
AC R They stopped manufacturing those.
Is the GSI better than the mr bullet feeder?
Holy flare
so if u want to change calibers u just buy a new tool head and a new feeder?
Hey Chris, yes! just take a look at the different calibers here:
www.gsiinternational.com/Bullet-Feeder-Conversion-Kits_8_4237.html
kool thanks!
Hornady LNL is vastly superior in all aspects. I just sold my 1050, and went back to a Hornady. Dillon is the most finicky POS on the planet.
Put the aluminum looking piece at the top of the tube in the freezer an hour before and no hammer will be needed
so Dillion doesn't make a bullet feeder?
So the beep indicate low powder charge and over charge?
Jerry Fang Yes
Will that bullet feeder feed rifle calibers. 223 in particular
Hi rdsii64, I believe they only have bullet feeders for HandGun loads. I don't think you want to load Rifle rounds this quick?? Check out there site: www.gsiinternational.com/Bullet-Feeder-Conversion-Kits_8_4237.html
You can call them, talk with Bowe, in customer service.
That's cool in all but if you don't shoot as much as that machine cost you properly don't need it but if you load your own and never buy factory then this is justified, and how is this when you load different pistol rounds and center fire rifle rounds is this bullet feeder universal or do you need to by different ones for each caliber.
The Dillon case feeder has four plates that are necessary based on the caliber that is being reloaded. These plates cost about $40 each (small pistol, large pistol, small rifle, large rifle).
HaveFunLetsAuction is it possible to have the powder safety powder system along with the Dillon bullet feeder ?
Yes, the tool head has a separate station for the powder check die & the bullet feed die allowing both to function as needed.
I paid for my press after reloading about 6,000 9mm rounds. I reload 9mm & 223 so I actually broke even sooner. A general rule of thumb is that you can save about 50% of the retail costs by reloading. Reloading is a hobby in itself which pays back savings benefits.
HaveFunLetsAuction thanks I actually went red and after months of just headaches with it I finally figured it out and the press finally paid for itself but thanks for the replies.
where I can get machines to recharge
Now just get an engine to pull the lever and train your dog to refill the consumables
So now your press is as expensive as a 1050...
can you use lead bullet with this unit
Yes lead bullets sized to the appropriate caliber work. As long as the projectile is the proper caliber size there are no problem limitations. Each caliber to be reloaded must have the required correctly sized reloading dies.
Check out this new accessory that just hit the market. Very cool
available now for sale online: It's called AmmoVision(TM) It's a system that videos the inside of your cases while reloading.
Visit the site: www.ammovision.ca
watch the video on youtube: ua-cam.com/video/J5s2KiFxqxI/v-deo.html
I wanna get 5 people in on a machine to produce ammo here in Michigan. Where I will make the Ammo for everyone. If interested and you live in Michigan please contact me.
