I just purchased the FFB Honey Badger Trimmer, and I'm curious which endmill you all would suggest? I've read that some have had success with left hand spiral/right hand cut endmills because they keep the chips down off the motor bearing. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Interesting... I have a combination of Hornady, RCBS, and Dillon dies. I also use the Lee FCD for most calibers. All fine with the Dillon? I assume I would just need to swap the lock rings?

Thanks for the input guys. I already have calipers, scales, etc. I also have dies, but I’ve been reading that the Dillon dies function better with the Dillon press. They were specifically designed for progressive reloading. Is this not true? Thanks for the tip on the swage-it tool. That looks nice. Does it replace the priming setup? If so, I’d assume that you just run your brass through the system twice?

Hi All - I've been reloading for 15+ years using a combination of single stage and turret presses, but given my lack of time lately and the ridiculous ammo prices, I've decide to take the plunge into a progressive setup. After tons of research, I've decided on the XL750. Given the wide array of parts available and my lack of experience with this, I was hoping you guys could look over my shopping list and give your opinions on whether I'm missing anything and/or whether I'm wasting my money anywhere. For starters I'll be loading for 223, 44mag, and 357mag, but eventually I'll probably add 9mm and 45acp. My big bore rifles will probably stay on t-7 turret press. See attached shopping list below. Dang this stuff is expensive Thanks in advance! -Chris
