[QUOTE="dc4ou, post: 2994000, member: 31840"] I have a Dillon 650. I saved up when I first started shooting to buy it and all of the stuff required. I added a case feeder and thought I was in heaven. Then I got tennis elbow and felt I had to buy a bullet feeder. I did not want to spend the money but it was the best thing I ever bought. It costs an absolute fortune to switch calibers if you buy all of the stuff (new tool head, new powder funnel, dies, caliber conversion, case feeder plate and bullet feeder conversion). I only load 9mm, 38/357, 40, 45 and 223. I definitely have a lot of money tied up, however I shoot a lot and have recouped my investment. The positive is that I can load 100 rounds in 5 minutes very easily. If I don't have any rounds loaded and I want to shoot the next day, it takes me very little time to load 400 to 500 rounds. I use to really like reloading, however I only do it now so I can shoot more rounds for less money. I would never be able to shoot very much if I had to buy factory ammo. I still have some factory ammo that I bought in 2012 but I never shoot it because it costs too much. ha If you shoot a lot and/or your time is valuable and you have the money...it is nice to have. If not, enjoy the process and know that you are making a higher quality product any way. I want to get a single stage with a rotating tool head to load rifle, however I am never sure which one to get. [/QUOTE]
