Dillon RL550=Pull die block pins, remove reservoir cap, remove die block assembly, and dump back into powder jar.
You are right on your Dillon. On MINE, it is old enough to only use the return springs-no fail safe rod to remove..I am not sure about the RL550, but on the XL650, I also have to remove the fail-safe return rod. Still not a big deal...
However, it would be even easier still if there was a drain.
I like the way Lee does it on their Auto-Drum system. You twist the plastic reservoir a short distance to the "off" position, and then you can remove the reservoir completely from the powder drop. Takes seconds.
It would be nice. My Dillon Square Deal is starting to look like crap. I swore I was coming right back to finish a batch.........that was about three weeks ago and now the plastic is all dark looking.
O well its broke in now. Hit it with some flat black and carry on.

I guess I don't understand why I, or most other re-/handloaders, should care about a discolored hopper?

Just cause IMO, it looks like heck...
Dillon, as most MFG's will help you to get a new reservoir. It just looks better==again JUST my opinion..Bill.
Looks over safety?
What did we miss here?

Bah... Safety's over-rated, trust me. Once my prosthetic hand and glass eye get here, I'll be good as new!
