Conventional lock rings are fine & once adjusted, never come loose & only takes hand torque to secure them in any press & remove them.

Well what I know about bushing issues is Hornady had a batch of defective press bushings several years ago that would break the tips off. Mostly in stations one and three. Anyone who had this issue and contacted Hornady myself included got new press bushings.
Its mechanical and one can do the "should have could have would have" but it happened and Hornady fixed it. Other than that issue I have had no other issues with the bushings. As far as using the shim for the powder measure I never really did but saw that Hornady had shims for it so had them send them.
Those that have Dillon say its the best. Ok sure though all the reloading oem's have good and bad for their price.
I load on a 650 as well as my LNL.
I like things about my friends 650 and he likes things about my LNL. I don't like things about his 650 and he don't like things about my LNL.
Life is just too short for me to worry about this stuff.
