I converted my LNL back to threads with five Lee threaded bushings at $7 ea. If you unscrew the LNL bushing it will accept the 1-1/4" bushing. I don't see the LNL QD bushings as any super great innovation. I generally only run my progressive if I intend to load several hundred cartridges so the time to screw the dies out is not that big of a deal to me. This also gets you 1/8" closer to the shellplate which is helpful with some dies.
Of course, you could do the opposite and buy a LNL bushing and thread it into the MEC.
I like the QD bushings. Set the dies once and never have to do it again. Since I do a lot of changes on the LnL it's a great time savings.
Right now I only do .44 mag and .45 acp on the Dillon. Need to get a 10mm conversion too. Then I can do all my large primer stuff on the 650.
