| I have a 550 and really love it but the powder measure adjustment is a real PITA so I am wondering if anybody has used something like a MRDial or Micrometer with good results also what can I do to tighten up the vriance on the powder drops |
Good luck--I had the item number and everything, went to TWO HDs and neither had them, nor had heard of them, nor were able to find them.  I finally bought some REALLY nice ones on Ebay. I'll try to find a link. BRB Edit: This is similar to what I bought--they work VERY well. |
They are in the special drawers over in the bolt section. I had a couple for awhile but finally gave in to the well machined Uniqetek goodness while walking the vendor tents at the Mystery Mountain match last year. |

That's where I looked--no love. Edit:
I used a nut driver for years--but the knobs are MUCH nicer, and fairly cheap.

Scroll down on my link above. The parts that matter are metal, and cast into the plastic knob. They will last forever. The ones you mention are EXPENSIVE--and I have six PMs. 
|
Do you glue to existing or do they have a post attached to them to replace the bolt ? |
They have a nut shaped indent in the back, it just press fits. |

The knobs are in the Nuts and Bolts isle of Home Depot in the specialty area where all the Specialty cap screws and such are in the pull out box drawers. There are several shapes and colors. They cost around $1. The package calls them KNOB_TEE 5/16"...UPC # 0 3069978178 2 They just push onto the bolt head, these have been on there 7-8 years with no problems. I went to a Home Depot I'd never been to before to get some more, they had them in stock, this was about 6 months ago.
