Ironsite Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I am trying to get a friend set up with his old RL450 on a shoe string budget. Emphasis on "budget". If anyone has a complete working version at a fair price please let me know. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapribek Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Dillon might help you out for a reasonable fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironsite Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Thanks... i forgot to say that i had already talked to them... at one time, i had mine repaired by one of their techs with a kind heart. Most of the "phone reps" there, just want to blow you off when you say 450.. and sell you an upgrade..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrispies Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) I recently cooresponded with Dillon regarding 450's and it actually costs more to refurbish a 450 than to simply purchase a new basic 550, and a regular 550 isn't much more either. They discard the 450 frames whenever they get one. Here's a primer upgrade http://www.dillonprecision.com/content/p/9/pid/23996/catid/6/Dillon_RL_450_Upgrade_Auto_Prime_Syst_and a powder upgrade http://www.dillonprecision.com/#/content/p/9/catid/6/pid/23629/RL450_AT_500_Dillon_Auto_Powder_System but that will get you to a current system not a reboot of the old one. Personally, I'd like to find a 450 to "save" for some side work to go alongside my 550, but I don't want it enough to pay anything beyond cheap shipping.
