[QUOTE="Rustygun, post: 4351146, member: 4711"] I run a Dillon 650 and a Dillon 550. The 650 is used just for 9mm and is almost as good as having an ammo factory in the garage. Easy to make lots of good quality ammo in very little time. Over three sessions each lasting less than two hours I loaded 1000 rounds of FMJ 124 grain 9mm for around 17 cents a round.. This included setup before and clean up after each session. I have not purchased factory ammo in close to a decade so I don’t know how this compares to the cost of factory ammo. Note that in the past decade I have never experienced ammo availability issues or big swings in the cost of ammo. There is a certain satisfaction to making your own custom ammo and the enjoyment of the reloading process. If you don’t shoot very often it will be difficult to justify the cost of a progressive.
