Do you have the correct charge bar installed?

Do you have the correct charge bar installed?

buy them both RIGHT NOW!

if you are certain you will only reload 9mm or pistol calibers then a SDB will be fine. but i suggest a 550, in case you want todo rifle calibers. you could easily reload 700 in an evening on a 550

nothing happens, the primer thats in the primer cup stays where its at

just order from brian its $8.99 shipping for a set of dies and the super swage

dillon website

if thats the case then dont get the 1050 and if you really dont want to swage yourself, then send to these guys they will swage is for you http://www.custombrassprocessing.com/PRICES.html i have no affiliation to them

was it a new lot of bullets? most bullets have a variation at the tip measure to the ogive and i bet they are pretty much the same

yep, first couple times it will scare ya but now i make sure to pay attention to rod in the primer tube, so when it starts to get low im ready for the buzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I usually just load them up and tumble the live rounds till its off

im alittle confused when you say that you lose speed with the 650 because of the lube process? the lubing process is the same for the 650 and 550. You still have to remove the lube if you are using the 550 i have both machines and have loaded rifle on both. The 650 with casefeeder is much faster, because you are not having to take the time to pick up a piece of brass and index the shell holder with the 650 you can pretty much just sit there and pull the handle mindlessly (while sizing) and i have used One Shot with no problems on rifle rounds. i just put a bunch of brass into a ziplock and give a REALLY good spray, mix the bag, and spray again. With that said i prefer the dillon lube as a little goes a long way

the part im talking about is the upper left black piece it takes all of 5 seconds to remove, and does not affect any other part of the press. i do it all the time when im first working up a load and basically using the machine like a single stage

to stop the primer feed: remove the black angled thingy:D from the top front of the frame. it just takes an allen wrench. its the part that the primer advance arm hits when you raise the press. as for the case feed, the easiest way is to just turn off the case feeder and empty the case holder tube hope that made sense:blink:

have you tried the manual that is on dillons website (or if you have the manual that came with the press) pretty sure it goes through all the steps
