I just purchased one and have run 20 or so rounds of 9mm. Waiting to go out and test the rounds before I make more though. Arrrrgh.

Mine should be here Monday or Tuesday depending on Easter. I just ordered inlinefabrication quick change plate and extra goodies.

Where did you get your inlinefabrication stuff?
Somewhere in Canada or direct?

Fasttoys carries inline stuff

I got most of my Inline Fabrication stuff from Range Panda. They ship to Canada. Depending on what you're looking for, Select Shooting has some items and Double Tap carries their "Sky light" system. I've also ordered some parts from Fasttoys as well. All I've been able to do lately is update the press - not really able to use it to much yet!

that inline stuff looks prity good

I was thinking about waiting for the 1100 to show up. I have seen lots of 650 vs 750 comparisons but no 750 vs 1100 comparisons yet. I suppose it's too new to the market at this point.

well im not a fan of the 650 primer system. ive used a 550 forever and its primer system has its quirks but works well . 750 has same style primeing system as 550 and thts part of what sold me

I’m new to the hobby but season veterans (who has 1100) advised against it unless you know what you’re doing. The 1100 is considered commercial so 1yr warranty. The 650/750 is not and has lifetime warranty.

650 vs 750: I was told the 750 primer feeder is improved and will have improved feeding. I don’t know why or how but I grabbed the 750. I’m looking for simple operations.

 

[buckbrush]

the 750 looks like the frame of the press is bigger than the 650.

I prefer the 650's priming system by far. Too bad retailers aren't clearing them out, I'd buy another 650.

 

[transumer]

I have no clue which is better, let alone the differences. I just want a plug n play unit.

You bought a Dillon so that's as close to plug n play as it gets. Just remember, nothing's perfect.

He is top notch to deal with!

I would reach out to inline staff and confirm that you are getting the right plate, etc that it will match with your unit. They have changed over the years (both plates and presses).

Cheers,

I just ordered from online but shipping was expensive. Thanks for tip.

 

[Beater]

well all things came in the mail today took the 550 down and put this up getting there

I do have an issue tho, not sure how im going to solve it. I need to flair the case mouth a bit on the 223 so the bullets don't fall off no place to put a separate die and Dillon doesn't make a flair insert for 223 on the powder measure that I can find.

even with 62 gr boat tails they fall off very easy. anyone have any ideas? you cant put the bullet feeder in the next station as the powder bar will run into it

looks like I need a lyman M die or something similar in station 1 to flair the mouth a bit

I assembled mine today. Very smooth operation. Yet to set it all up. Just clamped to bench as I wait for the inline mounting system.
