This is part 2
9mm Luger re-loading on the Dillon 650. This is a clip I made for a mate so some of the things that I talked about as showing wasn't on the film...
I thought that I would post this because there doesn't seem to be too many clips of the 650.
I know I mumble...
Because I buy once fired brass and re-use it (over 15x, or till it splits... :) this saves most of the money. The brass is about 30c ea. It works out to about 12c a round. Primers are $55 x 1000, powder is $40 x 500grams, projectiles @ $30 x 500. I load 4.2 grains. If youre keen you can work it out. I did, and loading payed for itself quite quick.
Hope this helped someone.
Ps: I wouldn't even think about the 550, too slow :)
@243WW Oops, about 12 or so primers left.

@hulkbuster1026 . Yes you can. The "bells and whistles" make the machine what it is. Without the case, primer and powder feeder it becomes a slower process. The Lee machine is cheaper, a turret even more so and then a hand press the cheapest. The 650 comes standard without case feeder and dies. I use Lee dies and don't have a powder indicator making it slightly cheaper. Best of luck

Yea, the missus uses it for scrubbing pots... I use it to just tumble the brass and polish it.

What do you have in the feeder besides brass . Is that some kind of stainless steel curls,.
