Have my 550 since 1986, and it will easily do 400 an hour. Now if you need the speed, then you can't beat the 650, or the 1050, with bullet feeders, and even faster with an auto drive.

I concur with the speed factor for the 550 but you also have to have plenty of primer tubes ready to go ahead of time to speed time.  I have ten primer tubes ready most of the time.  The other thing that makes the 550 very handy is swapping to another caliber and reloading .223.  The 550 keeps things simple.  I really only use my 650 for 9mm now that I stopped reloading for 38 super.
