fireman1776 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Looking to upgrade from a 550b. Will be running only 9mm. What all do I need to get the 750 to run and all I have to do is pull the handle? It seems the Dillon 750 with case feeder and then the mr bulletfeeder and the extra short powder bar. Am I missing anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nc1911 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Yes, a case feeder and a Mr bullet feeder and you are good to go. I got rid of my powder check die because I seat and crimp in 2 separate stations so the original powder bar is fine. If you are loading coated bullets separate seating and crimping dies are the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea of the powder check but I suppose if I just keep my eye on the press I can check for powder in the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nc1911 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Exactly, I load BB 124 grain without problems. Every pull of the handle I scan the primer feed, powder drop and bullet drop. If you have a problem, say a crimped case that stops production, pay extra attention to the progress of each case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stick Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 If you have the 550 and are upgrading to the 750 you should be fine with the casefeeder and Mr bullet feeder. My MBF is in station 3 on my XL650 which is fine without the powder check die if you are experienced in reloading. If not, or you use a small volume powder (titegroup) get into the habit of looking into every case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnymazz Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Your good to go with that setup. Ive been loading blue bullets for years now 115 grain. Have fun and fill a bucket up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlsccsfa Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 My 2 cents: 1. Use separate station for seating and crimping for best consistency, especially when using mixed head stamp range pick up brass. So no need for shot powder bar. 2. Look for a lighter shell plate detent ball and reduced strength spring on Ebay. Cost about $10, greatly reduce powder spill. Probably the most cost effective aftermarket upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeeg Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 A light kit from inline fabrication or competitor greatly helps being able to look into the case for powder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
