Hi, My name is Mike McCarthy and I live in Eden, NY just south of Buffalo. I have been looking into reloading for some time now and have been researching presses and equipment for weeks. I came across a used Dillon RL550b at my local gun shop and had to have it. It looks new but I'm sure it's a few years old as it does have the old single style lever for the powder measure. However it was well taken care of. I'm still in need of some dies and tool heads. If I am correct, the powder die is the same for each caliber, which is why dies are sold in sets of three? I need an extra powder die for each tool head caliber I leave setup?
So I spent a bit more on a starter press but I think it was a good move. I'll have this for a long time and should be quite productive once I get it setup and running. Looking forward to learning alot about this hobby through this forum.
Thanks, Mike
