I have a 550B and it does everything I need to do, does it well and fast. I did add micrometers to the powder measure bars for closer powder measuring although they are not necessary at all. UniqueTek makes them. I'd really like to have a 650 for automatic stage advancement but I'll never pay the difference for that. And I can't justify the cost of a 1050.

As stated a fast trimmer for .223/5.56 and a Dillon Super Swage 600 for removing crimp on military brass helps a lot.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.
