The 9 mm plate seems soft as the corners have gouges from use.  The 223 plate seems harder with no gouges.  I have 11 star machines and love them when I can find time to load. Have 9 mm, 40 s$w, 38 special 357 magnum 45 acp 38:super and 44 magnum all set up can’t remember who it was on here in the past that used to make beautiful star dies I bought numerous dies for the machines   Best thing is over the years have purchased tons of spare star parts. When I kick the bucket my son will have one hell of a yard sale.

I have a 9 mm and 223 shell plate both are marked berdan   Looks like they were made with mild steel not tool steel. Just checked my spares and that’s all I have. I did see that I have four hogue adjustable powder bars but those are getting hard to find now so a little reluctant to let them go. Might have to wait for the yard sale when I die.

I have six star lubrisizers and have never even used one.  Intended to one day cast bullets but still buying those jacketed bullets to load.  Just acquired two of them in the last two weeks all the old time reloaders are dying off and don’t want the things to get discarded.  I also have ten star reloaders which I have collected over the years. 9 mm, 10 mm , 40 s&w 38 super, 38 special, 45 ACP, 44 magnum   Will be one heck of a yard sale when I kick the bucket. Lol.

I have a Dillon 223 conversion I have never used because it was missing the link arms.

Might be mission impossible to load 223. Missing too many specialized pieces   I have managed to set up machines in 45 acp 40 S&w 9 mm 38 super 44 magnum 10 mm 38 special all with adjustable powder bars mostly hoag.  Also have the B&G mounting base.   Most important lots of spare parts

Star Reloaders / 223 conversion parts

« on: December 18, 2022, 03:17:08 pm »

I recently acquired parts for a star 223 conversion. Came with a powder hopper tha5 is about two feet long, a 223 shell plate, sizing and seating does which look like new, case feed in 223 flaring and powder funnel parts.   Was wondering what else I need to start loading.   Wish I could post a picture but site won’t allow
