YEs they can make you dies for 223 and 308.

Close to 40rpm is good for me....not a race but if I can roll size the brass quicker and keep reliability then I am happy. Now I am working on my second Case pro....installing a new motor.
-
If you plan to build your own, I suggest 1/4 hp motor or higher. The 1/8 hp will do but a little more HP won't hurt.
-
What happens once the "last" case clears the switch? you should still have a few cases in there, right? Do you manually remove cases or you just wired the switch to the CF motor?
-
Case-Pro then FL size and you are good to go.....it just works. I am Using Dillon carbide FL sizing die.
-
I did some research and this is the motor on the PW auto drive. http://catalog.orientalmotor.com/item/ac-motors-gearmotors-/tors-induction-motors-k-ii-series-induction-motors/5ik90ua-75?&plpver=11&origin=keyword&by=prod&filter=0

Casepro = $800+ Lee die - $20 Dillon die - $30 Elbow grease - $0 I will stick with the $50 investment and achieve the brass size needed for reliable function in my blaster Besides, casepro is only going to size down to 0.423 or so (saami spec). If your $50 setup gets the job done and you are satisfied, then look no further.

I random picked 5x 40 S&W fired cases and after roll sized on Case-pro 100. I am getting 0.421" average. This is just rolled sized, NOT full length sized yet. SAAMI is 0.424" - 0.010"

Yes you can....easier if your shell plate is bellow your eye level.

Not to derail the subject, but I am curious if this really speeds up the 650 reloading? I find that if I pull the handle any faster then the time it takes for me pick up a bullet, schtuff starts going wrong.. in a hurry. First of all, please make sure you finish the stroke. Bullet feeder any day! Can people quantify and expound more on their answers? Maybe something like how much faster it is and such? I guess one liners are rarely helpful. My reply was clear. Make sure to finish the stroke.....I don't matter the speed.

I processed 7k pcs of LC 308 cases and it required a lot of work to get it back to specs. Lube is your friend but too much lube will cause problems as well.
-
Case-Pro 100 will fix your problem and save you a LOT of work. I roll size all my brass before loading. I have tried U-dies, push thru dies and bulge busters (redding and lee) Case-Pro is hard to beat.

I have tried manual, drill and Dillon super swage....it gets old real quick indeed. I don't understand how some folks do it by hand....i guess they enjoy the process 1050 is a MUST if you are dealing with crimped brass.
-
Well $2,500.00 is certainly an interesting starting place. Unless I miss my guess there will not be just a ton sold. The R&D may eat them up to recover. So lets see...... 1800.00 Dillon + 2500.00 Mark 7 + 350.00 Bullet feeder. So out the door no tax or shipping a total loader would cost $ 4, 650.00 Really! Yes, interesting indeed..... $2,500 is expensive for the average reloader. $1200/$1500 for the Forcht and you can still buy another 650 or 1050 and you have a proven system plus the flexibility of having another press that will do rifle.....
-
I never said modding the press frame was a big deal. What I mean is modifying the press and shorten the stroke making it impossible to process/load 308 and very difficult to process/load 223/556 at high speed. I am NOT saying the Forcht Auto drive is not the best out there at the moment. It is to me and I like it.
-
NON crimped brass will make your reloading experience a little better.
-
Will see once they post a video....it sure looks interesting. The NO mods to the press and keeping the full stroke is a huge plus. Makes it a lot easier to load 223/556. That's one thing I don't like on the Forcht.
-
Interesting indeed.....but $2500
-
Whatever floats your boat.....the competition works for me
-
You guys will be pleased with the Redding comp seating dies. Now I have to get me one for 45 ACP

Dillon 650 and 9mm cases falling
Kaskillo replied to shtr3's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Check the case insert slide Part # 97082 Make sure it is setup for pistol (the short side) facing towards the shell holder. -
@ 30 RPM it is a bit slow for me I like to run it 40 RPM It is a good balance for speed and reliability.
-
Different strokes.....but it sure does the job!
