little dandy users HELP

OK I need some assistance from anyone who uses a RCBS little dandy powder measure. I someone to tell me the diameter of the rotors for the little dandy. I was told the Little Dandy came on the market to replace the old Bonanza powder unit. Supposedly the RCBS unit uses the same diameter rotors as the Bonanza unit did. If the rotors are the same diameter than it should be easy enough to adapt them for use in my Bonanza.

I have not located anyone I know who reloads that has a Little dandy. They all still use their Bonanza units.

I checked two rotors from my RCBS and they both are .8045
I used a digital caliper. Hope that gets you in the ball park.
Regards. Floyd

thanks

sounds like the two are not interchangeable. I guess its time to order a little dandy. I'll have to do some modification to some rotors as some of the stock rotors are for slightly lower loads by half a grain or so.

From time-to-time, I see Bonanza rotors for sale on ebay. FYI.
