Quote from Reloader on March 8, 2014, 11:23 amI understand that the XL 650 will not load the .338 Lapua at this time according to Dillon. What exactly is the issue that prevents the XL 650 from loading this cartridge? I have read elsewhere that several are loading this round, by having some of the material from the bottom of the seating die removed.

Others have tried, we've not heard of anyone successfully loading .338 Lapua on the machine, but lots of folks use one to process cases.
