  1. Getting ready to start rolling my own 38 super comp rounds....is there a preferred die set out there?

    I have an extra 9mm Dillon set, so I assume if I can just find a good decap/size die as an individual unit I can use the seating/crimp dies from my 9mm set?

    Thanks in advance.

  2. Sorry for the late response....just finding this.

    I was informed that the RT1500 was replacing the RT1200 and it would occur in the next 30-60 days as well.

    Dillon is not making the 300 toolheads or the 300 trim dies, both of those are from GSI. The GSI dies are a two stage with a rough die and a final die. The guys I spoke to at the Dillon booth said the tests they have done were using the final die only and had hit 500,000 pieces without issue.

    Also, not sure where they idea came from that you cant mill down the cast toolheads on the 650...many have done it, myself included.

  3. I currently have a 550 and would consider myself a casual reloader. Currently set up for 5.56, 9mm, 45acp, 357sig, 44mag, 6.5G, 458Socom, and will be loading for 308 soon. Am I to vested to consider stepping up to a 650? Guys who have had both, what are your thoughts? I have no real issues with the 550, just have some expendable money that I could toss towards this is all.

    Thoughts?

  4. Don't they share the same shell plate or is that just on the 550?

    Interesting. They share the same #5 shellplate on the 550....
