Is my new XL650 now a limited edition?
Quote from Reloader on July 26, 2019, 4:03 amAs in.....is the XL650 being phased out of production?
Seeing rumors a few minutes ago and wondered.
Have yet open the box and take it out to set it up.
Maybe it’s just inaccurate speculation I read. Figured I’d ask here.

I did so and all questions answered very well and everything makes logical sense.
Thank you for your help.

Quote from Reloader on August 1, 2019, 8:50 pmThe significant changes are a simplified primer system, so it is easier to convert from one primer size to another, the ring indexer has been redesigned so the spring pushes instead of pulls, reducing accidental breakage if it binds, and the index block now incorporates both a roller and a spring-loaded overtravel stop.
While none of the above retrofit the XL650, we will be offering a version of the new index block for the XL650 machines.
All toolheads, conversion parts, and most other parts interchange between the XL650 and XL750. Parts unique to the XL650 will remain in inventory and in production.
