I want a bullet feeder die and a powder check die

Page 1 of 36Next

Please let me know if I've got a reasonable plan for the XL650 I'm about to order.  I'd like to have both auto bullet feed and a powder check die. 

I plan to set it up as follows:

Pre: Auto case feeder

Station 1: Decap/Sizing/Priming die

Station 2: Case belling/Powder through die

Station 3: Powder lockout die

Station 4: Bullet feeding die

Station 5: Bullet seat/Taper crimp die

Post: Auto eject

Thanks,

It isn't possible to seat and taper crimp at the same time, as you end up digging the case into the bullet. I believe the GSI bullet feeder, which uses it's own toolhead, seats bullets at the bullet feed station, allowing for both a powder check and a separate taper crimp.

You can use a Lee Precision die - depending on caliber - which will seat AND taper crimp your cases at the same time and your plan will work just fine.

Lee pistol dies are a little on the short side and I've found that putting the locking nut on the BOTTOM of the due underneath the tool head works well.

I'm considering an RCBS bullet feeder but having run over 65,000 rounds through my XL650 and maybe 25,000 through an RL550 before THAT, I'm not sure I really need the thing. But it IS tempting.

Lockout die is a good choice for #3. It does the same thing as the Dillon powder check (all either does is check for a no-powder / double-charge condition), and is much simpler, no batteries.
