XL650 9mm to 40 conversion

#1 · May 16, 2013, 11:57 am

I ordered my XL650 and am patiently waiting, well, at times I am patient. Its hard, its like you know what you are getting for Christmas but its not coming fast enough. But anyway...

I ordered it for 9mm. But I am also going to want to reload 40. I don't want to mess up the order so is this what I need?

.40 dies - 14398 - $63.95
conversion kit - 21120 - $77.95
quick change - 22059 - $107.95

This will give me the ability to easily swap my 9mm set up for the .40 set up? Right? All my adjustments should remain preset? I would verify those settings, but they should be the same.

Am I missing anything? Is this the preferred method to use?

Thank you for any help.

What about a spare tool head? I bought my press setup for 9mm and converted it, very simple and quick.

The quick change kit says it comes with a toolhead.

If you have the optional electric casefeeder you might want the large pistol case feed plate #21072. 40 works in either pistol plate, but feeds better from the large pistol plate.
