I guess you can run the 550 like a single stage also and just manually drop a measured powder charge in for likes of 308 if you were trying to be precise rather than use a powder thrower?

yeah When started to reload I got the Lee autoloader (big mistake) with the idea Id charge singly for 308w but autoload for the 303brit when doing 100yds bulk ammo as it would be quicker. When the Lee worked it was great, just it didnt work well for long.

The Dillon comes as a basic loader,

Gunsmithing &Reloading Tools - Dillon BL550 Basic Loader, Presses

or an auto loader,

Gunsmithing &Reloading Tools - Dillon RL550B Loader, Presses

Its probably cheaper to get the Auto headed B and then get another block with the manual powder loader (funnel) something you need to work out.
