    Wait!
    Does it have a removeable toolhead(where the dies screw into)?
    If NOT then it should be a 450!

    550B now, may have started life as a 550 & been upgraded with the kit to make it 550b. Thats what I did with mine. the positive return link for the powder measure & the primer tube alarm were the main changes as I recall. Russ.
