I've been thinking about the 550B lately and I had a few ideas. First, it is most likely the best compromise between a true progressive and a turret press. You, the operator, controls the advance speed. You can halt it, inspect your loads and make adjustments. Double charging is tougher to do since you and you alone control the advance.
Another thing, the 550B is like the T7 inverted. Think about it. On my T7 I load a shell and size-deprime. I then rotate the turret, prime and expand. Then I rotate the turret and powder. Then I rotate the turret and seat/crimp.
On my 550B, I add a shell and size/deprime. I rotate the shell plate, powder and expand. I rotate the shell plate and add bullet/seat and crimp. Then I rotate the shell plate. remove the old case and add a new one.
The systems are remarkably similar in action. Now the 650 or the LNL are a whole different beast. Lots of "automatic" stuff going on that you have to watch carefully. It takes some getting used to.
So my thought is this: the 550B gives you a slight edge in speed over the T7 but the T7 gives a much bigger range of die combinations.
In either case, I would use the Hornady LNL case activated powder drop over the Dillon measure any day. No rods, cams or charge bars. Just a lot simpler in set up and operation.
