Lots of dealers have it as BO but no one has one on hand! Looking to get one to accompany my other 550....

Has anyone seen or come across one in stock at a LGS?
Tiger Arms shows as in stock but I called and apparently their online inventory is not accurate.
 
"The "C" designation indicates a significant design change. The lower link arm pivot pin has a zerk fitting, it can be easily greased using an automotive grease gun."

My 550 has been solid over the last 20 years of ownership and tens upon countless tens of thousands of rounds.
The oil holes work just fine and don't create a mess if you oil lightly, which is all it takes imho.


You could always order direct from Dillon.
 
My understanding from years ago when I bought my 550b was that the retailers didn’t have any markup on Dillon presses. It was recommended to me at the time that I simply buy directly from Dillon.

Yes I am aware. I already have an original 550, just need another machine so why not buy the latest "C" version.
