About Powder Funnels:
In FIG 37 are two examples of the many
powder funnels available for the XL 650.
On the left is a typical pistol caliber fun-
nel. On the right, a rifle or bottle-necked
type. The bottom of the rifle-style funnel
fits snugly over the neck of the case,
allowing powder to drop in without
spilling (the rifle-style powder funnel does
not bell the mouth of the case). The bot-
tom of the pistol funnel, on the other hand,
fits inside and actually expands and bells
as it guides the powder into the case.
Powder funnels are caliber specific, so be
sure you have the correct funnel by refer-
ring to the caliber conversion chart.
4. Insert the funnel into the die FIG 38.
Make sure that you insert the funnel
into the die with the grooved end up.
The funnel should move up and
down freely.
FIG 39
5. Remove the lid and the protective
cardboard tube from the powder
measure and place it onto the pow-
der die FIG 39. Turn down the two
clamp screws until they are snug.
Then loosen them slightly. The mea-
sure should move freely atop the die.
