Default Dillon 550b Upgrade?

Hey reloading people, I bought a new 550 b in February and got it set up for loading 38/357 mag, 45 ACP, and 30-30 Winchester. My question is any of you folks have the HIT FACTOR shell plate bearing installed and how you like it. I know they had trouble with them at first with the center bolt being to short but now they are made with a longer bolt. What say you people.

I don't think it would make any difference on 550. You advance it with your fingers so can make it as smooth as you want. If you're looking for upgrades - look for primer chute - all spent primers going to soda bottle instead of jumping out of factory bean - priceless
