Bullet feeder for a Dillon 650?

[lcclower]

Looking for opinions, what's the best bullet feeder setup to put on a Dillon 650?

I'mm loading both jacketed and cast in 45ACP and 9mm.

TIA, LC

Look at a MR BULLET FEEDER by Double Alpha.

I use the GSI feeders, they are the only one that allows retention of the powder check die and separate seat and crimp.

I like the GSI as well. It can be made to run lead bullets but it's iffy. Jacketed work just peachy. It's a total toolhead replacement and man is it nice quality.

I don't have problems with cast bullets in mine but I also don't use their collator, mine are homemade.

JM, for those of us that are not as creative as you are, will the GSI work with lswc bullets?

The GSI collator is no good for lead of any kind. They barely work with jacketed. I returned the one I bought to GSI for a refund.

I have never owned a GSI collator but the feeder/tool head works with my cast bullets in 9mm,38/357 and 45.

They didn't have a collator when I bought my first GSI feeder so I have always made my own.

I actually use the same collators for my sizing machines that are used on my reloading machines, I just have bullet "flippers" down stream of the collator, so they are fed nose down into the sizers vs base down into the cases.

I use the Mr. Bulletfeeder drop tube. Not as fancy as the motorized collators but it gets the job done. I have fashoned a few bullet tubes and when one runs out I simply pull it out and drop a new one in place and pull out a cotter pin and I'm ready to go.

By the way.... its simple to use and since gravity does the work cast bullets with 50/50 lube work fine. I also use the RCBS bullet drop assemblies for some calibers.

The retention of the powder check die is the most valuable asset of the GSI but I also like the fact that it holds the bullet perfectly vertical as the case comes up so you don't have to over expand or bell the case a bunch.

This is how little I use with cast an coated bullets.
