Who own a 'Square Deal B' here?
Quote from Reloader on November 16, 2016, 2:02 amNO REGRETS! I have owned a SDB for 18 years and load 380acp, 9mm, 38 Special, 357 Mag, 45acp and can change calibers in minutes. The no BS warranty has only been used once on a mistake I made. Customer service is excellent and very experienced personnel!

Quote from Reloader on December 3, 2016, 6:52 pmI bought a SDB on eBay for about 1/2rd the price. Came with all the parts. I found out that it was an older model, so spent a small amount to upgrade and put in new plastic pieces. I've had some parts to be replaced, free of charge, by Dillon which is great. I owned the 550 but sold it a few years ago. Can't praise either one enough. Great reloaders.

Quote from Reloader on February 9, 2017, 8:35 pmThe SDB is a great starter press. I just sold mine and moved up to the 550. I still say the SDB is a great machine, despite it's limitations.

Quote from Reloader on February 27, 2017, 12:47 amI have a Square Deal B I bought from a friend and the manual is dated 12/April/94. I have been using it quite a bit over the years and it still gives good service. I have had a few problems but Dillon ALWAYS has excellent service and advice and I would recommend them 100%.

Quote from Reloader on August 13, 2020, 7:55 pmMy wife got me a Square Deal B in 1993 as a Christmas gift. I have since upgraded the machine with every attachment there is, including seven caliber conversion kits. The machine has loaded thousands of rounds and most of the problems I have had were my fault. Dillon has been superb with support and advice and I cannot say enough nice things about them. The SDB and an old Herters single stage press are the only roading machines I have ever owned and I do not regret having made those choices.

Quote from Reloader on September 2, 2020, 1:34 amHad my Square Deal B for over 3 years and loaded thousands of rounds; mostly 9mm, but also 38 special and 380. Runs wonderfully. Especially like the auto indexing. If there is anything I wish different is that this version of Dillon presses is the only one that uses only Dillon propriety dies. Just recently wanted to change the sizing/de-caping die to the Lee U die to get slightly undersize for coated bullets and it won't fit in the square deal. Other than that, the Dillon dies are great.
