This is what I do.

This. But I have to add, get the CF also. Ordered my 650 without one. Wound up ordering the CF 3 days after the 650 was set up, along with the Dillon trimmer for .223. I am not a high volume reloader but I appreciate the quality and speed of the 650. Sure, the 550 would have probably been enough for me but the CF being able to handle rifle calibers on the 650 sealed the deal. Knew I would want the CF in the future when I got the 650. Full disclosure, I have a single stage LNL that I still use for low volume calibers and test loads......

I bought my 650 without the case feeder a few months ago. After depriming and sizing about 200 .223 cases I ordered the case feeder and the Dillon trimmer. The trimmer is a great addition but the case feeder is the best $225 or so I have ever spent, hands down.

I found that it helped to run a full hopper of powder through the PM manually as well.

I am a pretty patient person. As long as they get the order here in a month or two I'm good.

Recently got my XL650 (.223) from this site. Almost immediately ordered the case feeder and a conversion kit for 9mm after it arrived. Now I'm waiting on a Dillon trimmer and trim die also, and I have only set up/mounted the 650 up so far. Haven't loaded a round on it due to time/life constraints. Thanks for the great site and the plethora of info!

I ordered a 650 (.223) with roller handle, strong mount, bullet tray and spare parts from BE on Jan 15 or 16 (depending on your time zone). Got the press in mid February. Was very pleased with the delivery time. Recently ordered the case feeder and the super duper deluxe 9mm caliber conversion from Enos as well. Ordered the Dillon trimmer, .223 trim die, tool head and other stuff from Grafs (c&r discount) this week. Grafs said all was in stock but I have no doubt that the BE order will arrive at the same time as the Grafs order.....
