Quick Question: Dillion 750 XL

[JEBruns]

I highly recommend a case feeder. Well at least for me as there is no way I'm going to feed cases by hand.
Personally, I don't like the stand or bullet tray. I do highly recommend a bullet feeder.

Agreed. The reason I upgraded loaders (to the 650 in my case) was to get the case feeder. The RCBS Ammomaster I'd been using for years had no option to add that feature, and I was starting to load a lot. Inserting the brass each time REALLY slows down the process.

I sit while I reload so the stand is of no use to me. When I got my 1100, I added a Mr. BulletFeeder, so the bullet tray is of no value either. The MBF is very nice to have, but really doesn't speed things up all that much, depending on your technique.

And yes, at $695, that's a deal. Jump on it.

I'd say the bullet feeder speeds things up about 10-15% which is nowhere near what the case feeder does, but it also allows me to focus almost exclusively on the powder drop. I like to eyeball every drop.

I use an RCBS lockout die, so I don't need to monitor the powder drop. But I do agree, it lets you pay more attention to other parts of the operation.

I haven't had luck with the RCBS lockout die or the Dillon powder check die. They both involve something going into the case and touching the powder. I found that they would draw up powder out of the case.
