Dillon XL650

Recommended Posts

After loading about 10k rounds on my SDB, I'd found the machine limiting and I wanted some additional flexibility and speed. After speaking with a number of folks, I decided to bite the bullet and buy a 650. Found one lightly used on the board and got it set up with one minor headache with the shell plate, but otherwise little incident.

500 rounds through it now and I cannot believe how fast it is -- even being super careful, how consistent the powder charges are and how much nicer my finished rounds gauge. This is a worlds better machine! The SDB was good for learning, but I'm in heaven.

I just added a GSI bullet feeder to my 650.

Hells teeth this is fun!!!!

I now have to talk real sweet to the lady of the house and get one for the 1050. I am prepared to beg.

Before anyone asks, I use the 650 way more than the 1050 at present and just really needed one.

Seth,

Save up and buy a KISS bullet feeder for it. You will almost triple your speed! :bow:
