great vid. where might i buy a good used proggressive reloading press.. im having a hard time finging one.. that or a site where i might look... i dont have tons of money as my dad just died but id really like to get into it.. thanks again..
Thanks. I had always kept station 3 open so I could check powder if necessary, and to give me some room to correct any errors that may have come up in priming or powder load.
Ummm.... no the dillon is not the easiest one to figure out by any stretch. It's science, there's a lot in one of these. I have one the same as this and their great (I would never sell it) but if you want simple, try a lee single station press.
No, that's a tumbler running in the back ground cleaning .45 ACP cases. The case feeder is pretty much silent except for the sound of brass being shuffled around.
The press in the video is a progressive press. It is the fastest way to hand load ammo. According to Dillon's website, this particular press can pump out 600-800 rounds per hour. A progressive press progressively assembles the round in stages (Five for this press) so every time he pulls the lever is one step. I am just getting into reloading so I don't know the whole process.
if you want an example of how fast a progressive press is, watch "Reloading .223 5.56 on Dillon 550b 400 rounds an hour" it shows reloading on the 550, the 650's little (and more hands on) brother.
I've only added the Case Feeder, Strong Mount and Bullet Tray to the base 650. If you're looking for just a press, this is about everything you'll need. If you're just getting into reloading there are other tools/items you will need to pick-up. Let me know where you're at with your loading setup.
It depends on your budget, but the 550 is a great press. It's quick to change calibers and is versatile enough to load both handgun and rifle cartridges. If you're on a budget, consider the Square Deal B which is a great press too. If you want to crank out lots of ammo and have some money to burn, the 650 is what I like. For shotgun you'll have to buy a dedicated press... and from Dillon those are mighty expensive.

@Sturmgewehre Dillons are like slot machines, except you win a bullet after every pull. Good vid demonstrating the speed.

does the reloader thing make that noise or is someone vacuuming in the background?

I think the noise comes from a casetumbler.

I guess it's not much of an issue.

Perhaps not a very tight crimp, but you have to remove the bell somehow...

Is the Noise the case feeder? I though it has a shut of switich. I have a 650 but no auto case feeder.

dillon is the fastest; if this isn't fast enough you shouldn't be reloading.

@Sturmgewehre Which Dillon do you recommend if someone had two or three pistol calibers and a shotgun, shoot every couple weeks?

@Sturmgewehre Wow, great advice. Damn on the shotgun. Maybe I'll just screw with walmart ammo, or get a lee reloader for those.

Is this a "Stock" setup or do you have extras added to this system? What other extras would you suggest for somene interested in this press?
