Recently I sold most of my reloading equipment to my cousin to get him into reloading. Majority of those items I no longer used as I had upgraded them. However, I no longer have a press (RC IV) and have been wanting a Dillion XL650 since I started reloading. Now with the new XL750 and ready to purchase a new press, that is the direction I am looking to go.
Goals:
Brass Prep
Precision Rifle Reloads
Bulk 2.23/5.56 & 9mm Reloads
With the XL750 only being $140 more than the 550c, I don't see a purpose in going that route. Feel free to talk me into it if you feel it is a better route.
I am not worried about having inaccurate precision reloads as I can float my dies/tool head, use quality dies & manually weight out charges. The major question is... when actually loading, do I simply have several empty stations?
Example: for .223/5.56 & precision reloads
Tool Head 1:
1- Universal Decapper
2- FL Sizer w/ no bushing or expander ball
3- Mandrel
4- Empty
5- Empty
Tool Head 2:
1- Empty
2- Drop powder & prime
3- Empty or powder check
4- Seat Bullet
5- Empty or crimp
Would this be correct or am I thinking about this wrong?
