  1.  it looks like there are 5 positions on the toolhead, so I'm guessing the following:

    From this statement it looks like you need to read up on how to use your press. I would suggest posts here and YouTube. There are many useful videos. Don't buy anything until you get a broader knowledge base. There are many threads here on using the Dillon presses. The dies for the 750 are the same as the 650. Here's a start..

    Same here. I have to re-type every thing into the Existing User Sign in. What's up with this? It's a royal PITA. Then it tells me "Sorry, you do not have permission to be here". Then I click on the Forum, and I'm logged in and displayed as GOF. Like always. What's up with this?

    Check which browser you are using. In the meantime, try rebooting the browser. I use chrome on my PC without a problem. 

  3. I haven't gone shooting in quite a while. I grabbed some ammo from my shelf and headed to the range.  I started shooting the Deagle 50. Why? Because I love shooting it. I then started shooting the CZ Shadow. So far so good. I then started shooting the Baer 45. Two mags in, I get a click and no boom. So I slap, rack and just before the boom part, I hear a voice yelling, STOP!. I glance down and see that the ejected shell has no bullet. I know darn well that I didn't load an empty piece of brass into my mag. I break the gun down and damn...there' a bullet in the barrel. The next round had chambered and I could have pulled the trigger with disastrous results. The ammunition was a box of about 30 rds that I had from a while ago. I had a squib then and thought that I had pulled all of the bullets from that batch. This was from when I had first switched to the 650. I wasn't used to auto progress of the shell plate. With the 550 I could stop in the middle of a handle pull and not have the case move on. I've gotten the hang of it now but I must have missed the last of my problem loads. The interesting part of this story is that when I heard STOP, I looked around thinking that it was an RO yelling at me. I was alone on the range.

  5. It's been quite a while since we had a new MOM. It's not that we don't have worthy members. It's just been very busy lately. It's time to remedy that. Recently a member has been nominated for the MOM award. He has been a member since 2016. One of his first posts was offering to lend some equipment to a newbie. The majority of his posting is to help others with good advice. He is always available for help with anything, from which gun to use to interpretation of rules. Since joining, he has acquired an almost 1500 post count. Post counts are the least of the criteria when selecting an MOM, unless those posts are ALL to help others. So many of us post to ask for help. This member is all about answering those posts for help. Please join Brian and the Moderators in congratulating our latest MOM award winner..MikeBurgess.

    Sounds promising although it was all in peds. It sounds like it's (relatively) risk free. The std surgical procedure really turned things around for strabismus. Do you do the procedures?

    I do not do the procedure. The majority of my patients who have had it done are adults. As we get older the extra ocular muscles can atrophy and cause a double vision. Initially prism glasses work. As time goes on, the amount of prism needed can be too much. I always refer out to someone like Dr Mathias for a consult. 

  8. Surgery is an option but has anyone mentioned Bupivacaine injections? My patients have had a great deal of success with this. The injection helps realign the muscles. It wears off after about 3 months but by then you usually don't need a second injection. It all depends on amount of eye turn. This paper was about a surgeon that I co-manage surgery with , Dr Stephen Mathias. https://www.healio.com/news/ophthalmology/20170404/bupivacaine-seen-as-alternative-to-strabismus-surgery
