Enhance Your Reloading Experience with the ARMANOV Dillon 650 Toolhead
The ARMANOV Dillon 650 Toolhead is designed to provide unmatched precision and performance for your reloading needs. With its innovative Free-Float, Zero-Play design, this toolhead ensures that your ammunition is aligned perfectly for optimal accuracy.
What Does the Free-Float, Zero-Play Toolhead Do?
This toolhead features lock rings that allow the sizer and seater dies to float. This floating action enables the dies to center themselves precisely over each cartridge, leading to the best possible alignment and more concentric ammunition.
Understanding Zero Play
The ARMANOV toolhead does not utilize the original toolhead pins supplied by Dillon. Instead, it is secured with two M3 bolts, lifting the toolhead to its utmost position. When cycling cases downwards, the toolhead remains stationary, ensuring that cases exit in a straight line. For best results, loosen the M3 bolts slightly, push the index shell-plate with a case into the dies, and then tighten the M3 bolts to achieve optimal positioning.
Why is Concentricity Important?
Concentricity refers to the straightness of the bullet on top of the loaded round. A straight bullet enters the rifling in the barrel effectively, while bullets that are slightly crooked do not achieve their highest accuracy.
Limitations of OEM Toolheads
Dillon presses are renowned for their quality, but the cast toolheads have inherent limitations. Questions arise regarding the flatness of the toolhead flange, the alignment of each threaded station, and the spacing of the stations. These factors can lead to misalignments and affect ammunition concentricity.
Advantages of the New CNC Machined Toolhead
- Manufactured to the highest standards from 6082 aluminum, providing superior strength and reduced flex compared to cast toolheads.
- All critical dimensions are machined in a single operation, ensuring true and aligned surfaces.
- Die holes are positioned with high accuracy, and the 7/8-14 threads are machined to tight tolerances for precise fit and alignment.
- The flange is flatter than that achievable with a cast toolhead.
