A friend is wanting to sell his 550. I own a 650 for my high volume handgun ammo and 1050 set up for 223, but have never seen or used a 550. I have about 8 toolheads set up for the 650. Do the powder measures interchange between the 550 and 650?? He says that he has a 550 that is about 6 months old, and complete toolheads for 45 ACP, 40SW, 38 Spec and 9mm. He's wanting $400 for the whole setup.
What I have in mind is selling the handgun caliber stuff and setting the 550 up for rifle (243, 25/06, 308, 30/06, 30/30 and 45/70) plus the low volume handgun calibers (44 Mag, 41 mag and 480 Ruger). I already have the dies for these, so I assume I'd just need the shellplate and the expander for the powder die, plus enough toolheads for the dies. I would swap the powder measures around between the toolheads.
Am I on course or is there something I am missing?? I think I'll go look at it tonight.
