Best Progressive Press and why...

Yup, listen to XDRox on this one. I have sat and loaded 1000 rounds in a sitting (no bullet or case feeder) and haven't yet thought, "damn I wish I had a case or bullet feeder." I do HIGHLY recommend the bullet tray and case bracket/tray, however.

Sounds like the Dillon is for you, and don't sweat the extra cost of caliber conversions too much. You are going to buy this ONE time.......do it right the first time.

Worst case scenario and you decide the dillon isn't for you, you will easily get about 90% of your money back if you sell your Dillon.

Buy a used Dillon from someone here on CG's and your good to go. Warranty and customer service is top notch. You won't be disappointed.

Ill have to start looking for some 550b's I've had good luck on ebay in the past so ill look there too.

If your interested in Dillon products, check out Brian Enos' "Which Dillon" page on his site http://brianenos.com/pages/dillon.html#which

He also talks about what accessories will be needed and what upgrades give you the most bang for your buck.

Oh and if you do call Brian. . . Brian will talk your ear off, and you make an order with him the first time, he will probably call you to make sure you ordered the correct stuff.

Great guy to deal with . . . Not affiliated, just a satisfied customer.

Totally agree with SDJim, Brian is extremely well know in regards to the Dillon and is a really great guy.. He’ll bend over backwards for you and probably will call you to verify you got everything you needed.. No affiliation either I just know him from the forums and have had the opportunity to chat a few times over the phone… In my past 9+ years of reloading and I’m on a lot a different forums, I’ve never once heard anyone speak ill of him.. just be prepared to talk and listen..

Dillon 550B period. Fast caliber change and great customer service. Anything else are just cheap piece of cr*p. It doesn't matter the cost, your time making ammo is priceless.
