Dillon 550 Slow - Nah!

I can resize and trim 800-1000 .223 cases per hour on my 650, I load em slowly but 600 per hour is a leisurely pace... Same with .308 an x39...

9mm, .40/10mm, .45? With someone filling primer tubes and keeping one bin full and the other one empty... I can load the average Canadians 2 week paycheque worth of components in an afternoon ;)


I do like the 550's manual indexing tho... I wish they would make a hybrid for .223 that was somewhere between the SDB and 550...
 
Does the rate per hour include the prep time such as loading primers? One of these 550's is on my list.
If i was to run a test it would include prep/load time for say 1000 rounds.

Does the cyclic rate of a machine gun include the time to load magazines, or to walk down range to hang targets?
