Avis sur le produitDillon Precision RL550-C Reloading Machine without Caliber Conversion Kit

New to reloading

I purchased this press on the recommendation of my friend who has been reloading for over 40 years and has used a variety of presses. He suggested I just bite the bullet and get the equipment I'll eventually decide I need to begin with rather than work my way up to the good stuff. The press is easy to set up, reliable, and has the benefit of access to very knowledgeable phone support at Dillon. I used it to reload the 308 Win cases I had available with no problems. When I switch to 338 Lapua the change-over was easy and everything was going great until I got a case stuck in the die. Not a problem with the press, just a problem with the operator. Even with the large magnum rounds the mechanical advantage provided by the design of the press makes for easy work until you get a case stuck. Then it provides enough power to rip the base of the round from the rest of the case. This is a high quality item.Lire l'avis complet...

Dillon RL 550B

I have used the Dillon 550B for well over twenty years. I just purchased a new one for my son, which he helped pay for. He was real excited to be able to start reloading high quality 10 mm auto right away.

I've noticed that Dillon continually makes improvements and adds accessories to it's products. I bought the "strong mount" and bullet/case holding bins for my old machine as well.

It's great that my son will be using his 550B long after I'm gone!Lire l'avis complet...

Best progressive press there is

If you are going to shoot a lot this is the best way to go. I just got back into shooting and I bought this press again. I've used a Dillon 550B for over 10 years now and have loaded over 20,000 rounds and it works great. Once you get it set up it's free sailing. I can reload 100 rounds in about 7 minutes for half the cost of buying ammo in the stores. Plus you have a greater selection of rounds to make not just what the store has. I'm reloading 9mm, 40 S&W and 45 acp and have 3 separate tool heads so changing calibers is very easy.Lire l'avis complet...

Great reloading machine

I bought this machine as an up grade to a Lee turret press that I learned how to reload on a couple years ago. It is very smooth and once set up and tuned works perfectly. Once you get your rhythm down you can reload a lot of ammunition and each pull of the handle produces a finished round. I would get the strong mount for this press as it really makes a solid platform. I would forget the roller handle at this point since you are taking your hand off to grab an empty case any way I just don't see an advantage. If you have a case feeder then that is a different story.

I am using Lee dies and they work on this press. Some will say that they don't work but I find that I am able to still use my original dies. Granted there is not many threads left over but everything locks up tight to the tool head with my Hornady lock-rings, another great product.

Looking back I wished I had just bought this machine first, buy once cry once I guess. I had originally intended on keeping my Lee Classic Turret but because of how everything works I don't see the need to have both presses.Lire l'avis complet...

Fairly new to reloading

I upgraded from a single stage RCBS press to the Dillon 550C. I watched a YouTube video to complete the assembly. It will take me a little time to feel comfortable with the Dillon system. I felt confident that I could monitor one step at a time. There is so much going on with each pull on the Dillon press that it will take some time to build confidence. I have confidence in the Dillon equipment, I just don’t have confidence in the operator yet.Lire l'avis complet...

You can buy a brand new upgraded model 550C

It’s a great press and there are super great deals out there. Find it online for $450 is easy no tax no shipping. You have to buy the caliber set up that brings it up to about $509 if you bought all on Dillon via shopping cart but they charge tax and shipping. Better to buy elsewhere and apply fir PayPal credit and pay over 90 days with zero interestLire l'avis complet...

Dilon makes the best loading machines in the business. I have a total of 4 Dillon loaders (2 RL 450s converted to 550 specs, 1 550 and one Super 1050.

Since the early 1980s I have loaded literally hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition on these machines perhaps over a million. The average person getting into loading for the first time think Dillon is high prices compared to the competition but, you get what you pay for and with Dillon you get a warranty unparalleled by anyone in the business along with the most durable and dependable, easy to operate machines available today. I have toured the Dillon Precision facility in AZ, I have met Mike Dillon personally and if you want the best return on your investment, buy Dillon equipment. The cheaper brands are cheaper for a reason.Lire l'avis complet...

The best progressive loader on he market !

I have owned 2 of these same loaders prior to this purchase. These are user friendly and the final component is 100% accurately made. Powder charge is always accurate, ease of caliber change is second to none and the quality is top notch.

If you are serious about reloading then I would highly advise you to check out one of these Dillon presses and I'm sure you will find what I say to be 100% true !Lire l'avis complet...

Dillon

Had one years back and wished I had kept. Now proud owner again. It's accurate, easy to use, strong. Actually a joy to reload with. Have never found any negative about it.

Best deal on a great loader

I’ve gone through probably 4 different presses over the years and this is by far the best. The rest had various shortfalls. I finally spent the extra money for a Dillon and worth every penny. Everything is quality metal (no static electricity) and fit and function is real professional quality. I bought extra tool heads so I could set up the dies one time and check out the funnel-shellplate-pins table and save some money by seeing which parts cross over to multiple caliber uses.
