Just a thought, you might need some powder and primers too
Nice buy - MG is a good guy to deal with. Can you get a case feeder for a 550?

Yeah thanks for that tip.
Powder and primers are easy to find at my local supplier. In my area the shops are more rifle/shotgun types. The main pistol stuff is for 9mm or .45ACP not many people shooting .45 Colt.

Nice gear nick ... someone drank the blue koolaide
I drank the red .. Forster ..
Have fun ..
I pet my Forster every day and speak nicely to it..
I have been thinking about casting. Got to let the Visa cool off a bit but it is a possibility for sure.
Come on Spawn-inc.... We both know that's a time machine.
550 case-feeder
Big fan of the 550 overall, but I would steer clear of the case feeder.
I have one, and while it works fine there a few drawbacks:
A) - it doesn't work well with 9mm &
B) - you can't load rifle on the 550 with the case-feeder attached
It takes away from the versatility of the press, but does add speed for the calibers it works with - so with that being the end goal, the 650 with a case-feeder is a better choice for those thinking of upgrading their 550 with one.
The few items I do like very much are the strong mount, roller handle, and bullet tray - they make life with the Dillon presses a little easier (they really should come standard with the press).
