Picked up my first "Blue" press today...

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

Decided to give Dillon a try. It was a good deal that I just couldn't pass up. Needs a bit of cleaning but I think it should make a decent press. The 2 other presses on each side are pretty PO'd right now. They got an attitude when I brought the Star Universals home too. :roll:

Yep. And it's pretty easy to tell it's a 550 from the picture. Well... for me anyway... :-)

Call or text me.

I thought for sure that you were talking about "San Diego Blue".

I wish. Always looking for those Stars!!

I should have said "Baby blue."

[Kevin Rohrer]

Dillon has a rule against their presses being in the same house w/ Stars. You need to sell me at least one of the latter. :mrgreen:

Just wait till you upgrade to a 650........

That poor Lyman in the corner looks like it's miffed, too.

[bosterr]

A rose among thorns!

My 4 Star Loaders are sitting on a shelf directly across from the 3 Dillons, can't say they are happy but they are safe from any use...

Woowow that's a heck of a setup. Ifin you get a case feeder fer the blue one & bullet feeders fer'em all you could connect all the handles & make 15,000 rounds in a few hours.

I never even thought of that... :drinks:

I have a case feeder for my 550 and love it.

Nice press assembles a lot of boolits rather quickly.

[timtonya]

I got mine last year and love it. I sold my loadmaster boat anchor and glad I did.

[CGT80]

Did someone say blue? Well, my motto is go big or go home, and the B I G Dillon is not blue and neither is the bullet feeder that is on it. :mrgreen:

A couple tool heads for the 550. The 1050 is setup only for 9mm, for now. Down the road, I hope to be able to include a star sizer or similar sizing press. I'm not sure if they are the same as the star reloading presses, but I read that Dillon started by modifying the Star presses.

My first press is/was a Hollywood Universal

Welcome to the world of Dillon. That is the same press I started with.

Sorry, but I HATE the auto indexing. Just my opinion.
