I run three Dillon 550s set up for 9mm, 38sp and 45acp.

I have them set up in a back yard building with shop lights over them.

the only one I have issues with seeing the powder is the taller case 38 because I am using a fast burning low powder charge.

I bought two LED lights designed for presses and they are affixed underneath the frame next to the die block housing.

I was disappointed that the height of the case still does not allow powder verification with the light placements. they would need to be right over the die pointing down.

the only die that will allow that is the seating die (if it has a hole) prior to placement of the slug.

I can see everything better on this press except for the powder charge which is why I bought the light in the first place.

I should have went to IKEA!
