Single stage !
Quote from Reloader on August 14, 2021, 10:26 pmWhy does Dillon not offer an awesome single stage press ? Love my 550C, but I’m getting into reloading 308 and want to do them on a single stage . Just hate spending money on a green press. Ha. Wish I could order up a killer Dillon single stage

Otherwise, I have a separate powder funnel that attaches to the powder die on my '650 that enables me to to precisely weigh charges for loading on the progressive press. It's not as fast as the powder measure, but faster than a single stage. Interesting article here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fp72h0e4awobo65/6_19_Dillon-Prometheus-Article_v1.2.pdf?dl=0

Quote from Reloader on August 15, 2021, 1:54 amI just ordered a funnel set up for my 550. Never thought of that before. I deprime everything on a Lee APP and clean. Then run everything thru my 550. Funnel sounds like a winner because dropping 45-48 gr’s thru my current powder set up was not happening. And no need for expander on 308’s ! Thanks for the help !
