  1. Yes the side with the slide lock.
  2. I got lucky for now found 1000 Federal large magnum primers and 1000 Winchester small pistol for $35 each bought store limit of one box each. Now to find bullets.
  3. This may help. I've used a different version but this seems to work. http://reloaderhub.com/calculator.cfm
  4. Since your other two angle must add to 90 16*sin(45)=11.31 or 16*cos(45)=11.31
  5. I had been dealing with a manufacture over an out of spec spring for over a month. Had to break out tha calipers and measure it. I guess it not fitting in 4 different mainspring housings was enough. Well finally got tired of messing with them and called brownells this morning. Less than 2 minutes on the phone and I have a new one on the way. Thanks Brownells.
  6. I know the feeling I sold my square deal to buy a 550 but by the time it got here I was thinking of selling it for a 650. My wife talked me out of it. She said if I did I couldn't complain about not having a press while I was waiting.
  7. When I make a powder charge change I do the 10 then average to get the actual charge. I also do double check anytime I've stepped away. I just didn't have this issue with my Square Deal.
  8. I setup my new press and all seemed well, but when it sets unused for any amount of time the first charge is off. I was loading 4.3 grains but when it sat it would throw 4.7-4.8 grains. After you cycle it the first time it would be back to 4.3. This is not my first Dillon and I didn't have this problem with my last one. Any suggestions?
  9. I wouldn't suggest a craftsman. I got one a couple of years ago but it won't hold air when shut off. All I have to compair to this though is my larger harbor freight one. Between the two when I go back to the HF it still pretty much has the same psi as when I shut it off. The craftsman is empty and I have to fill it up again.
  10. At a gun show not long ago I saw 500 rounds of wolf selling for $375 and brass cased ammo going for $1 a round. It's crazy times.
  11. Mine didn't it just came with 2. I would say it was a mistake.
  12. I just got my 550 in yesterday, and got it set up.While I was waiting I ordered a couple of add ons. Heres my take on them. 1. The led light for the inside of press.This gives out more light than I originally thought once in place. With correct placement it shines right down in the case. 2. Spent primer cupI replaced it with one that is basically a funnel that a hose attaches to it that drains into a bottle. This is of the two much better, it allows me to not have to worry about the cup and does a great job of catching primers.
  13. For my 550 I ordered it on 2/1 and it came in yesterday 3/21. So I wouldn't worry quite yet.
  14. Ordered my 550 on Feb 1 and it came in today. Got it part of the way setup the. Off to basketball practice.
  15. 45 and 9mm dies came in today. Just waiting on my press. Ordered everything on 2/1/13
  16. I have owned both of the presses mentioned. Go square deal and don't look back. I had to deal with Lee a couple of times and the last one was when I needed a part that was literally 90 cents and they wanted to charge me 14.95 f to shop it. As far as quality and customer service it is Dillon hands down.
  17. Received everything except my press and dies today. Strong mount Roller handle Bullet tray Empty case bin Quick change kit 9mm conversion 45 acp conversion
  18. I have loaded winchester federal and cci. CCI and not that much different you have to watch going to a softer primer as I flattened a few until I adjusted.
  19. I use the ready tactical pouches. I can get 6 on my belt with no problem.
  20. Looks like registration has been pushed back to 9:30 shooting at 11:15. That's what was posted on Facebook tonight.
  21. Having to rethink my magpouch choice. Don't really want to reach all the way to my right rear pocket for the last mag. Thinking about the DAA single stack pouches.
