[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2571698, member: 15054"] You need to really do some research on both presses and see what parts are missing. Then do the math and see how much you will need to invest in completing one of them. It may be cheaper in the long run to buy a completed new press VS buying all the parts to complete one. I like 4 dies when loading pistol brass and 3 dies for rifle. The 450 is a 4 holer. I use lee carbide pistol dies and die 4 is the carbide size and crimp die. But i still get by with my lee 1000 and i use die 4 in my single stage press. Or i use die 1 in my single stage press which is the carbide sizer/deprimer die and install the other 3 into my 1000 press [/QUOTE]
