    Anyone that ordered from Midsouth get theirs yet? Sounds like Lee and Titan were the only ones that got them.

    I've been considering getting one and I may have read this somewhere before, but I'm guessing any push thru type sizing die will work with this unit.

    Would this be correct?

    I've got a few old style Lee's, but they make them in such a limited range, I was also thinking about getting the Noe setup.

    Will it work with the new APP press?

    Thanks.

    Here is a link to a video he shows how he set up for the NOE sizer.
    He also has made a video showing how to set up with the older Lee sizer dies. https://youtu.be/wT33yAJDqAk

    Watched most of the video. Seems he is using the Lee push rod with the Noe Die inserted "upside-down"

    All well and good, but I was wanting specifically to start with 375 and Lee doesn't even offer a 375 push rod.

    Hmmmm???

    Don't think I want to order a special order die set.

    Wait for the Lee upgraded version of the Dillon 450 progressive press, all of the functions including 1/2 price replacement warranty.

    I received my APP press yesterday. Got it setup to de-prime 45 ACP and size 45 ACP bullets(451)
    that I powder coated and some 45 Colt(452

    This thing almost makes if feel like a sin it's so fast and easy.

    I'm gonna have to cast and shoot some more; I'm out of bullets to size and almost out of 45ACP to size.

    I know. I had been looking at this bag of brass for some time now, always wanting to get around to it. Next thing you know, I've got 1500 sized and cleaned in just a few hours. I better cast some more bullets to go in them.

    Do you know something we don't. I would sure like to hear more. I do own a 450, they are nice presses.

    Got my APP from Titan Reloading this afternoon. Ordered the bullet sizing sstuff too but only set it up and deprimed around a thousand 9MM in no time. I think it is well worth what I paid and am real pleased with the results so far. I had a four tube case collator set up, so I installed it rather than the single tupe that came with it. Worked great.

    I'll bet Lee didn't think their new press would be as popular as it is.
