    I have multiple 3BR measures. Liked the first one well enough to buy a few extras. May be better powder measures out there, but this is a pretty solid unit.

    It's hard not to like a 550 due to it's versatility. It won't be as fast as a 650 or a 1050/1100, but it wasn't designed to or cost as much. I have two like others here. I could easily get by with...

    Dillon RL 1100

    Seems that Dillon has a new press coming out at the SHOT Show to replace the 1050. Just saw a picture on FB of it. They also mentioned something about the CP 2000 which I think was supposed to come...

    I've been deer hunting since before Thanksgiving. The sheer amount of stuff that I have acquired in the interim and haven't found a home for makes my loading room look like it was hit by a tornado. ...

    Sounds like you got a decent buy on the 550. Probably about what he paid for the press at the time he bought it. I would try the Lee dies and see how you get along. I have personally converted to...
