Someone (empyrean?) mentioned that the Hornady had a benefit in that you could just change the metering insert when changing calibers vs. changing or resetting the powder measure on the Dillon. True, but you can also just change out pre-set powder measure bars on the Dillon measure as well. I have a 550, not the L-n-L (I pussed out and went blue a year ago since all my friends that load progressively use Dillon... built-in local support network). I haven't really gotten to where I'm happy w/ it for precision long range rifle, at least not running progressively. Even with short extruded powders like Varget, RE-15, & N-140 I'm not happy w/ the consistency of the measure. I'm probably either going to get a Hornady or RCBS powder measure + case activated powder drop and go that route. Either that or get a L-N-L for .223 Rem/9mm, the two calibers I load in volume.
YMMV,
