The_Vigilante Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I started to convert my .40 S&W 650 to 9mm and found the person who sold it to me gave me the 9mm shellplate for the 550. I found out it is supposed to take a #5 shellplate for the 650 and ordered one today. However, I tried using the .40 S&W shellplate (W) and found the 9mm cases would fit in the slots perfectly and seemed to work ok. So will the W (.40S&W) shellplate really work in the 650 for loading 9mm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I use to use the 40 S&W shell plate on a 1050 to load 9mm and it worked just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastarget Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I have been using mine to load 40 and 9mm, no issues, that way I only have to change the tool head/dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twodownzero Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 On a 550 they are the same shellplate. Are they not with the other presses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmitchl Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Not only will it work but the 40 plate works better for 9mm than the 9mm plate IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 On a 550 they are the same shellplate. Are they not with the other presses? No. There is a specific "W" shell plate on the 1050 machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
