headspace definition.

Cycle the Handle all the way down. Screw the Pistol Size Die (Clockwise) down until it just touches the
Shellplate, back the Die up 1/16 of a turn or less. Note--Some Dies may require “full contact i.e. slight cam-
over” with the Shellplate.
•
Tighten the Die Lock Ring with a 1" Dillon Bench Wrench using a 7/8" wrench to hold the Die Body with the
sized case in the Die.
•
Note--the Pistol Depriming Assembly is not adjustable. It is spring-loaded to assist in removing used primers
from the tip of the Depriming Pin during the Depriming step with a “snap-action.”
•
It is a good idea to check the sized pistol case in a Dillon Pistol Case Gauge--see below. The sized case should
drop freely in and out of the Pistol Case Gauge. This Case Gauge can be used to gauge the completed reload as
a final quality check.
