dillon 750

[Beater]

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.

what caliber are you running?

 

[transumer]

9mm but I have yet to properly mount it to bench.

This should answer most questions between the 650-750 differences.

I own a 550B and a 650 and has no plan to change for a 750.
One option that is great that can be added to any 650-750 is the case feeder interuptor.
This make you stop the case from feeding from the drop tube when you need to pull the handle to clear a spill or any other reason... there is also nice other gadgets...

Why?

 

[Beater]

Why?

why...… because the bullets wont sit on the case mouths without falling off when the press rotates no matter how slow and presise I move it. so, why I need to flair the mouth a bit so they sit down in. that's why

I struck out today finding a lyman M die in 22 cal if anyone knows a shop with one id sure appreciate a tip

Can you not just give the die a couple turns deeper into the case until you find the right amount of flair. The Dilion die that comes with the powder measuer is made to be adjustable. Or perhaps you don't have the proper powder drop in the die.

This.

 

[rocketman321]

That only works for pistol cartridges

 

[rocketman321]

Use boat tail bullets

this. powder funnel from Dillon for 223 does not flair the neck . nor does anyone make one that will flair the neck. think how small the hole would have to be in the middle for the powder to go through.

yes I do. thankyou

I always put the bullet in after the shell plate rotates and I seat the primer. With flat based bullets sometimes I have to hold the bullets and guide them into the seating die.
