The pressies are solid. I have three and fir decades loaded all my match ammo on them. I think I've broken one part in the last 40 years and that's the bushing the shell plate bolt goes through. The...

Ten years ago I posted up my reloading room but PB took them all away. Still basically the same but a bit more cluttered. If things work out we are planning a move to the country and I'll have a...

I feel it is a good deal. I load a lot of wildcats and it helps me set up a new cartridge and play what if. It's not the Gospel but it does get you in the ball park.

Those really make it easier for using those big boys. I ve had mine 25 years. I use the small version to handle my SS media.

It was about 15-16 years ago on Thanksgiving morning I was looking at the regional paper insert and saw an ad for a 550 and tumbler for $50.00. I dang near vapor locked as this was at 0630. Finally...

I guess my virtually NIB 550 and the big new Dillon tumbler for $100.00 was OK then?

Rather than reload the whole thing for factory default levels I just create another cartridge for my use. My personal rifles are quite a bit of on case capacities etc. so I just customize a file and...

Thanks. I'll see what my senior brain can do. That's sounds like an elegant way to handle it.

Probably the wrong area but when I load in the new QL update will it still have all my custom cartridges in the set up or will it over write and revert me back to square 1/default data?
Thanks,

I love mine. I bought the brass insert deal off 6BR from the get go and have virtually no issues on over charges to speak of. I like dispensing and seating at the same time plus for ladders it...

Got a 300 in 1981. I have three. They still have a few parts. Only thing I've broke was the insert for the shell plate bolt. They have upgraded my 550 and 650 twice for free.

All the coupons I use have a note with the 100 FREE BULLET statement showing S&H for each order. I think the UPC deal is for actual proof of purchase on each product vs. someone recycling same...
