Here comes Santa Claus

RE: Here comes Santa Claus
The Dillon presses are a very good piece of equipment, but if increasing the speed of reloading isn't all that important some of the turret presses would perform just as well w/ lower start-up costs. We set up a Lee turret press for my wife to get started reloading her .45 ACP shells, and it works very good. The only problem she had w/ it is after she became a better shooter in several years of shooting she couldn't keep up her reloading w/ her shooting opportunities. I also hear a lot of good things about the Redding turret presses, but I'm not familiar w/ them. However, the Redding turret presses probably function very similar to the Lee turret presses.

The Dillon press we have for my wife is the 550, and it does everything she needs, and allows her to easily check each case for correct powder levels. The 650 has too many bells and whistles, and checking powder levels is difficult. Overloads of Bullseye don't treat a .45 acp very well at all.

Regards
