Canuck223 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 So I caught myself in an assumption so old and unchallenged, I just assumed it was true without question. When the 650 came on the market, priced without the "optional" but ridiculous to do without casefeeder, I assumed it was because many 1050 users might be looking for a cheaper press and could share the casefeeder they already owned. Now I'm wondering, it that true and does that work? I have a 1050. I'm tooling up for an oddball caliber, and now am wondering.... Anyone else share a casefeeder between your 1050 and 650? If so, did you simply buy the stand seperately, or did you need to get creative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I use to share my case feeder between my 1050 and Casepro. I do not see why it would not work the way you have suggested it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugster Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Should work. Can only load on one press at a time, might as well save a few bucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sd624 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I have two 650's and use to share the case feeder between them. I hated switching it between machines and bought another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angus6 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) I move the case feeder from the 1050 to the 650, can only run I at a time and it's a 30 second swap , 1 case feeder means 1 more 1050 toolhead Edited January 16, 2012 by angus6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron59 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 If you can buy the "arm" the casefeeder mounts on separately... just swapping the casefeeder itself should be super simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The arm is included in the kit with the 650, regardless of whether you got the casefeeder itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I need to double check that the tube that the cases slide down is the same part number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugster Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 The tube is also included with the 650 even if you don't get the casefeeder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noylj Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 How can anyone load on a 650 without a case feeder? You either have to reach back with your right hand to drop a case in where the tube would go (I have done this with a friend's new 650) or get up every 20-25 rounds to fill the tube (I tried this and didn't like it). It took about 30 minutes for my friend to decide to get the case feeder ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I say in my Dillon Product info section - if you don't get a Casefeeder with the 650, after loading for about 15 minutes, you will wish you had it. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
