I like my RL450. You will not go wrong getting the two upgrades now, while they have the press.

There are a few things missing in the photos. One is the retaining pins for the cartridges. They are brass and go in the small holes on the outside of the ram.

Also, there is an indexing star that needs to be installed. It goes between the bolt and the shell plate. It makes it easier to turn the shell plate.

Looks good though! Having that will be a real blessing! Nothing special needed to use it as a single stage. Just put one case in at a time. Use the setup procedures for your die set and you will be fine. The powder die is a bit of a challenge to set sometimes. It is in that station that you get the bell put on too. Getting that adjusted can be a bit frustrating. Learn the process first.

Go to Lee's website and watch the setup videos for their dies. Should work pretty close for other manufacturer's stuff too.
