don"t look back you made the right choice. i had a 650 and upgraded to the 1050.
1050 flies and the swaging for 9mm cannot be beat.
enjoy and do not look back.
if you have a bullet feeder you will be done loading in a hour or so
-
if you load 9mm and do not swage them before reloading go with the 1050.
i have so much more free time since i got the 1050.
in your case i think the 1050 is the way to go if you are just processing brass

went form a lnl to a 650 . best move i have ever made.
then moved up to the super 1050 all i can say is wow.
when i sold the 650 i was surprised how much i sold it for.
put it on eBay for 900 with a lot of extras worth maybe 1200-1300 new.
sold in 1 hours should have asked for more
-
is the case feeder the same on both machine?
i have a 1050 may add a 650.
-
yes something is off
i took it apart clean and lubed it. i will see how it goes . seems like i get more then my share of primer slide jams
-
when running the super 1050 full automated how often does it jam. i have a primer issue or a mister bullet feeder issue every 100 or so rounds.
when i am manually doing it
-
The one thing I really don't like about the 1050 is the warranty. I've gotten so used to the lifetime warranty on the other presses that I would be pissed to break parts and have to pay for them
true but the 1050 flies.
i should have kept my 650 for other calibers

i just upgraded from a 650 to a 1050. i like the swaging option especially when you buy once fired brass.
if you can afford it i would suggest cancelling the 650 and upgrading.
but keep in mind caliber changes are much more expensive on the super 1050.
i love mine so far.

me and my son shoot at least 1000 rounds a month.
just shot 50 rounds of sw500 with a lite load.
my cost for a 9mm round is about .08 (i cast my own bullets as well)
sw 500 cost was .60 for brass that i will reuse
powder about .08 primer .04 and lead .04.
compared to 2.50 per bullet and you would probably shoot less then 10.
i save a lot of money i shoot as much as i want and do not worry about ammo cost.
and i find it relaxing. my equipment cost about $4000.00 one super 1050 a mister bullet feeder and a star re-sizer.
i should say that i load the 500 sw on my lee press.
i also reload .380 .45acp 30-06 and 44 mag.
-
do you replace the ratchet or just take it off
-
if i make the space i will get another 1050 one for sm primers one for large
-
the space was the issue. i also have a lee single stage i use for SW500 44mag and some rifle calibers. but i do not shoot these that often.
i have to many toys i mean tools on my 2 benches already
-
I bought a second toolhead.
i will leave the 9mm toolhead alone because it works great.
i will be loading 380 and45 on the second toolhead. i will only reload them 2-3 times a year.
i am waiting on the mister bullet feeder in 9mm
i load a ton of 9mm for my son and me. we use them for practice and uspsa matches. they go quick
-
well it came in saturday at 4pm i was reloading buy 6:30pm
some minor adjustments with the seating OAL and the powder.
i was doing 9mm . this thing is fast swaging is awesome no issues with seating primers with crimps very happy.
put 650 up for sale on ebay and it was purchased in a few hours. i guess i underpriced it but im very happy.
in the future i will be getting a 1050 for 45acp but distant future.
this way i have a small and large primer setup,
the cost for changing calibers is very expensive but i guess you pay for the best
-
thanks guys appreciated
-
i have a xl 650 great machine
i just ordered the 1050 yesterday from brian

if the primer swing arm(the part that moves the primer slide) is set to low it will cause this. happened to me as well raising it slightly fixed the issue.
