Hi, I've been out of reloading for many years now. I have a Star, a RL-550 and a RCBS Rock Chucker that I have set up. I also have a Dillon XL-650 with case feeder in .308 that I bought from a guy needing money but have never set it up. So I've been thinking about setting it up to load .38/.357 revolver ammo and started looking at Dillon's web site to see what it would take.
Boy, was I surprised at the cost of dies and conversion kits! Did they just go the way of everything else with the cost, or am I missing something? I'm not that guy that is always trying to chisel a deal, but do want to feel comfortable that I'm not over paying without benefit.
Second question - I see that the 650 has been discontinued and replaced by the 750. Does Dillon still support the 650 with repairs, etc? Would one be advised to not fool with the 650, sell it and buy a 750 instead?
Thanks in advance!
