You'll be happier than a pig in mud. Fantastic machines. No BS. They just work.

Thanks guys. I followed em for a year and watch my friend down the street and yes l paid cash saving for it. May add a caliber of 9mm in 2 months. I'll hit ya up for ?'s, .. Lovelife, l have a mrbulletfeeder.biz drop die (3 of-em) with manual feed for now. I have all pieces up to collator, but my pvc tube holds a ton of hi-tek bullets.

Congratulations gunoil.

Be careful, if you are a press Addict like me, they multiply!

After getting my first, I was so disgusted with myself for not getting it 20 years earlier. Just like I should have have bought my 550 years earlier. If you do high volume, it sooo easy to justify a 1050 and sooo worth it!

Yeah, and you will see guys post, "well I can do just as good with my xyz machine" and " my abc machine is better at this". Oh, NO! They don't have a clue.

Life is now Good!

Enjoy

My 650 is a machine too.
I have always used a 550 to do everything. Got the 650 for deal. Now I am looking at do most of my stuff on the 650 instead of the 550.
It just really produces the rounds.

LubeDude speaks truth. The Dillon Super 1050 is what all the other machines want to be like when they grow up.

I remember I had a clown claim his Hornady could out produce the 1050. Haha!!! Hi machine was put to shame by the 1050.

Heck, the 1050 is so fast, easy to use, and efficient that I sold it because I didn't want to feed it!! You made the right choice Gunoil. Shoot me a PM if you have questions.

The 1050 is a great loading machine. What I like about it is the primer crimp removal station that allows you to load 223 very quick. Dillon makes great equipment.

Don't worry about the money....In a couple weeks you won't even remember what you paid for it! Plus, if you ever sell it (and I doubt you will any time soon!), you'll get your money back. -- Just like Lubedude, I have two 1050s. Have them set up in 45acp and 9mm.

Your biggest challenge will be to stockpile your components to keep up with your production rate!...no joke.

There are a good bunch of guys here with knowledge about the 1050s so if you have any problems, just give a holler.

Hell, next gun control dust up list it on GUnbroker and then go buy you a new 1050 AND 550 with the money.

Dillon equipment can seriously be looked at as an investment.

The only thing better than a 1050 on your bench is a bunch of 1050's on your bench.

Best investment in reloading you will ever make.
Take your time, try not to beat the clock making your ammo.
Its all about quality and not quantity.
Enjoy your 1050!

Ive loaded a truck load of ammo on my buddys and theres nothing better. I wish i could join the club but im on a fixed income now and just cant afford to. Wish I would have been smarter back when i still worked.
