, I got the micrometer dispenser directly from RCBS. Was about 40 or so.... works incredibly well. Worth the cost!!! might get it a bit cheaper from midway....

I'm purchasing my first reloading "kit" from RCBS this month. So, your post helps, with more questions, helps. Good Thread!

All that can be done with one single pull from the handle of a Dillon 650 XL.

... you don't have to sell me on a 650. If I was working, had deep pockets, raising a family and had very little time... I'd have one in a heartbeat. Fact is tho...

First, there are a bunch of people that just can't afford $1154 (today's price for a good version of the 650) or $1159 for the comparable LNL. That would be with the bullet and case feeders. Even at base levels, to get into reloading for $150 or so for a Lee... or have to spend 549 for a Dillon 550B, can be a huge stretch. And so, I have to stand by my position that for many people, single stage or a turret press is the way to go. Not to mention the learning curve/safety issues for new reloaders. And I also understand your position. If I lived in California, I would want to have a 650 for when the secession comes about. You will have a skill that will keep you safe. You'll be an ammo maker! (Just kidding, I DO understand your love of the 650! But there are alternatives....


Secondly, if you load more than two or three calibers, you would have to agree that the cost goes up. Large and small primer tubes, shell plates, etc...I load for 380,38,9mm,38 Super, 357mag .40 and 45 cal. In addition, I load for 7.62 x 39 7.62 Russian and 5.56/.223. I'm not loading 1000 rounds at a time, which.. btw.. I have plenty of since I'm retired.

AND...... for you folks with really deep pockets.... No 650 or 1050 is truly complete without this add on from Ponsness/Warren. It's only $950... just a house payment... or a case of really good wine... scroll down the link to watch the video.... ... you're gonna drool over this one!
