[Gordon]

Dillon 550 in all calibers EXCEPT .45 acp for which I have an old Star progressive that cranks them out for 30 years and going strong! I do have a .50 BMG single stage Rock Chrusher and a straight line benchrest press.

 

[Zak Smith]

I didn't see the Dillon Super 1050 mentioned yet.

I use a pair of Square-Deal B's. My next one will be an XL650 or 1050.

[Will Fennell]

Mainly Dillon

I have 2 Dillon 550's[mainly used for Pistol ammo]...

1 MEC 9000 for shotgun, but I never use it anymore.....Bulk shotgun ammo is the way to go.

1 RCBS turret press for "semi progressive" rifle-ammo reloading.....

Thats enough to keep me busy

So uh, are we going to get to see a picture of an 8 station progressive, set up for 50 BMG? That jumped off the page at me and I would love to see it.

Dillon 550B

 

[HankB]

Handgun: Dillon Square Deal B.

Shotgun: Ponsness-Warren 800B

Rifle: Sorry, I don't use a progressive . . . for plinking (.223, 7.62x39, and .308) I buy bulk or milsurp ammo, and for hunting or serious target use I'm a little more methodical than I could be with a progressive. I've been using an RCBS Rockchucker for this since grammar school. (30+ years)

 

[Mylhouse]

I have one Dillon 550 and one RCBS Pro 2000.

I prefer the 550 as a more user-friendly machine (IMO), but the RCBS seems much sturdier.

 

[MCNETT]

I would recommend the Dillon 1050 and 650, I have both.
