Green Frog,

It's definitely for a Universal,   Part of the kit is a couple special shell locator straps.

NYKenn,

No idea but I'm thinking late 70's, or very early 80's.   Here is a link to Dillon's about page.   https://www.dillonprecision.com/about-us.html

Bruce

Did not see a date on the flyer.
Any idea when it was produced?

The advertisement states that this is for the "Star Progressive" press.  Was this actually the case or was their design for use on Universal Progressive presses?

Don't know if it's still there, but on the about page of Dillon's website (while Mike was still alive) it said he sold about 100 of the kits.    Some of the parts, like the powder magazine and powder slide were were available separately.    I accumulated five of the kits, but the first one took me forever, getting pieces here and there.

Actually,  I have sold a number of rebuilt machines to customers in Australia and parts to others.  We have a number of members on the forum from down under.   Outside of the USA, I see the most Stars in Australia and in the Scandinavian countries.   

Florey55,

Send me an email to the address on the card below and I will send you a quote for the parts I see missing on your machine.    Please include your shipping address.

I just found this topic.  WOW!  If I had a Star Universal in 32 S&W L I’d be burning up the InterWeb to get the rest of the pieces I needed to get it running.  If you’ve been in touch with Bruce, I’m guessing this is a done deal by now.  How about an update?  (maybe some more pictures?  ::) )  This is a pretty hard-to-find caliber for the Stars, at least in this country.

Regards,
Froggie

As one of Bruce’s customers for this accessory, I can say without fear of contradiction, it is perfect for its intended purpose.  Even if I weren’t using it with the Lee collimator I’d still want it to hold the case feeder tube in place over my Hulme case feeder base.  The aluminum is adequate and functional I am sure, but the brass one is just so elegant!  Thanks Bruce!

As your link was to 8 years ago, I would imagine that you have indeed sold a fair number of them.

Regards
Kenn
