    I reload everything on a progressive (Dillon RL500B) because thats all I have
    6.5tcu, 6.5Saum, 223 and 7-08 for my brother

    Easy and 1,2,3
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    I only load ammo I use in bulk (pistol, .223 AR) on a progressive. All my hunting/LR ammo I load on a single stage. Powder thrower can vary a little bit (.1-.2 grn) depending on powder so it is not what I want for accurate ammo at distance.

    I use a Hornady lock n load.
    Purchase price is around the same as a Dillon but it is way easier and way cheaper to change caliber.

    Very solidly built press.


    All you require to change caliber is a shell plate ($70)
    And set the thrower up for case length.
