I finally got my first progressive (Dillon SDB). I bought a used setup for .45ACP (my primary caliber). It came with toolheads & dies for .40S&W/10mm and 9mm also. So far I've only loaded a few hundred .45ACP and it is great! I will keep my single stage for rifle but wow this is really cool! As setup it loads my exact dimmension pet round 230 gr RN. I did adjust the powder a bit for my use. I am impressed with the consistent powder drops (W231) by the way.
My question is are there any peculiarities that I should be aware of on the SDB? How difficult is it to change between large and small primers and calibers etc. It doesn't seem too difficult from what I've read in the instructions but thought I'd ask you folks that have hands on experience.
I'm already looking at getting another for small primers (lazy I know).
Thanks in advance for your input.
