Dillon 650 vs Dillon Super 1050

[Finish it]

The 1050 is the way to go. The 1050 is by far heavier duty and smother than the 650. The swager system is worth the cost alone but add in the priming system and you are good to go.
I recommend going with the Mr. Bullet bullet feeder at least. If you are really into it get a Forcht chain drive system with the variable speed motor and sit back and watch it run.
I load 9, 40, 45, 223 and 308 on the 1050
Now, I only use my 650 for small jobs like 44, 357/38 and 380
If I knew then what I know now I would have found a way to buy 2 1050's. I would run 1 for pistol and the other for rifle.

x2 on the 1050.

The 1050 is a tank that runs like a Swiss watch.

The lack of a lifetime warranty on the 1050 is not even a consideration for me, and it wasn't when I was thinking of buying it. I already had a 550 with many conversions.

What slowed me down on buying the 1050 and Mr. Bulletfeeder was the money.

Swaging and priming on the downstroke is what I really wanted. The priming system is much better than the 650 and is very similar to the 550. The extra stations means I can run a bulletfeeder and separate seat and crimp dies. My 1050 is setup for 9mm and 40 S&W.

The conversion is easy and really isn't all that complex. It does take more time, work, and money than the 650 or 550 to convert. 20 minutes will take it from 9 to 40. I also do most of my own auto work and have always worked with my hands, so dealing with mechanical stuff is no big deal for me. I actually enjoy the swap on the 1050 and don't like to swap the 550.

My brother bought a 650. It is a nice press and loads my 223 quickly, but I would much rather have a head for the 1050 to at least prep my 223 brass. The 650 and 550 don't feel as solid as the 1050 and this makes loading on them less fun. 223 is a somewhat low volume cartridge for me, so I get by with swaging and trimming off the press. 9 and 40 are what I use the most of.

Oh, I forgot to mention how nice it is to be able to adjust the primer seating depth with the 1050.
