78Staff Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) So piggybacking on my other thread, where I have decided to add an XL650 and casefeeder and primarily setup it up for 45ACP, while running my 550B and existing casefeeder for 9mm Since I have the 550b and casefeeder, by looking at the part numbers I see the casefeed plates are the same part number for either. SInce I already have a Lrg Pistol casefeed plate with my existing 550b casefeeder, when I order the XL650 I can just order the small pistol version of the XL650 casefeeder, and just swap the plates, correct? Thus winding up with small pistol on the 550B and large pistol on the 650. I will be buying the xl650 with 45acp conversion kit - I won't need any other parts that would normally come with the xl650 large pistol casefeeder? All that comes in the conversion kit (unlike the 550B, where you have to buy CF conversion parts separately for each caliber conversion... Phew...that was hard to type lol...hope it made sense? I though I read something along these lines on the BE ordering pages, but I can't find them now. Edited September 2, 2016 by 78Staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ams30gts Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 The casefeed plates are interchangeable so no worries there. If you are buying the 650 with 45ACP conversion kit and large pistol case feeder, you will not need anything extra other than dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, but I want to buy the small pistol case feeder, since I already have the large feeder plate from my 550 CF and will just swap the plates - moving the small to the 550, and large to the 650 CF. Just want to be sure I don't need some other conversion part that is not included with the 650/45acp conversion kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerBaron Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 yep. buy a XL650 in 45ACP. and buy a case collator in 'small pistol'. then simply put the plate from your 550 into the 650 and vice versa. that'll work just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeinctown Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 The two items are sold seperately anyway, so just buy the casefeeder in small pistol as mentioned. Some places like to advertise it all as a package but really it's just individual components ordered at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
