That is something I will have to do. Wish I could find a video that has that in it in addition to everything else you have to change. Do I have to take out the primer feed control block (4:00 in the video). On the one I have, you just flip it forward/backward to turn it on/off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregInAtl Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 I am getting ready to purchase a 9mm conversion kit for my XL650. I currently have my 650 set up for 45acp and my 550b is set up for 9mm. I am planning to switch the 550b to 45acp and the 650 to 9mm because I am shooting a lot more 9mm these days. So is the 9mm powder funnel on my 550 the same one that is used on the 650 for 9mm, i.e is it the same powder funnel that is in the 650 9mm conversion kit. The same for the locator pins. If they are, maybe I could just purchase the other components of the 650 9mm conversion kit separately. I haven't figure out if it would save me any money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muncie21 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 This Dillon caliber conversion calculator should do the trick http://thegunwiki.com/apps/calconversion/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for that idea. Thanks for the calculator, though. It made figuring it out a lot quicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregInAtl Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 So, in summary, I gather that these 3 items are all I need to convert to 9mm XL 750 / XL 650 CALIBER CONVERSION KIT CASEFEED PLATE SMALL PISTOL XL 650 PRIMER SYSTEM SMALL (optional) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExStreetWalker Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 You don't NEED a new primer system. You should have gotten all the parts when you purchased your press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
