Problem with Dillon 550B

[Skip Sackett]

I do not have an RL550B, I have it's predecessor, the RL450B.
This was one of the original models with the manual primer and powder drop. I will be honest, I love this press BUT, had to get those two items upgraded!

I have less in it than what a new RL550B would cost and it works like a dream. It was rough when I got it but, I cleaned it up and it works great.


Personally, if I had a Hornady LNL AP, I probably wouldn't have bought Blue either....Now that I have it, and several caliber conversions, it would seem silly to change now, although, I am such a tool junkie, it may happen yet anyway!

p.s. Bob, get another LNL with a case feeder for the 40S&W, you will be glad you did.

I want the LNL Reloading factory with all the case and bullet feeders. That looks like a deal! I could load all my bullets, brass and primers in one day!. (well almost)

For a turret press, I will go green. The Redding Turret is one solid massive hunk of precision metal. Love my early 90s vintage 550B also. It just keeps chucking them out. I do tear the thing down and clean/grease all the linkage every Christmas.

I ended up with a Dillon purely by chance. When I looked into reloading, I was at the local range and Dillon is what they carry. The "No B.S." guarantee and the fact that parts and accessories are literally 10 minutes away sealed the deal. And like the Beach Boys said : "Be true to your school"

If they dealt RockChuckers, no doubt I'd be into "The Wearin' O' the Green"

I couldn't live that close to the Dillon factory and not look like a member of the Blue Man Group. That close I think everything I own would be blue.
