All Ready!!
 

Being Monday is a holiday, I have the day off. The wife does not, the kid has preschool so tonight i prepped about 2,000 pieces of 45 and about 500 rounds of 10MM. I will be a busy boy on Monday, hoping to get it all run through the Dillion in a day. I will post some pics when finished. Hoping that it runs smoothly too. First real test that I will give the 650. I have done batches of 100 or 200 but never in the thousands.
Pretty eager to give it a whirl.


:D:D:D:D:D

Awesome, can't wait for the follow up

good luck doughnut boy

Good luck Phil,

Wow, a day to load. Have as much fun as I would!

Sounds like quite an enterprise!

Most I can remember loading on my 550 at one go is 400 rounds, and I need about that much more to be ready for brownie's next Volusia class in late March.

Even at that, the back gets talking to me pretty good before I'm done.

I will drink heavily then I will feel no pain funny j/k btw

does this mean you are going to start taking ammo orders??? if so i'll take 4000 45acp, hold the case, bullet and primer and just send the 231.:D

have fun my friend!

I really need to put my square deal together and load some 45acp, just haven't had the chance.

Phil, you say you have a Dillon XL 650, you should be able to run through those 2000 45ACP in about 4 hours and the 500 10MM in about an hour, depending if everything is set-up correctly and all goes as it should.

I had a Dillon RL550B and ran it through its paces, just once mind you at full speed and I did indeed reload 500 pieces of 45ACP in 1 hour without any press problems or reload malfunctions. Of course I was anal when I reloaded and checked every 10th round for being correct.........over kill, maybe but in my reloading experience I never had a bad round!!! For every caliber I reloaded I also had a deluxe quick change assembly, made it so much easier when changing calibers.

Of course I did not load 500 per hour either after the first trial period!!!:D

Congrats Phil. Please take some pictures of your new set up.
