Flame away...why? He's looking for advice on reloading machines, what could be better than varying opinions? Look at everything that's suggested, make an educated decision and order it. By the way...it was Fla-VorAid. Kool-Aid got a bad rap.

Damn Yankee orange cat!

At least they won't fall down!

Unless you're determined to have a press with automatic indexing, I'd go with the 550. The Sq. Deal requires proprietary dies, isn't able to do rifle rounds and I don't like auto index. I have two of the 550B's, one for small primer and one for large primer. Changing from small to large primers, or vice versa, only takes about 15 minutes in the real world time. The only reason that I have two 550B's is because one of them is basically brand new and I got it for less than $100 completely set up already and came with all the normal items that all new ones come with. I can make 600 - .38, .357, .45 ACP per hour and that's with checking powder every 100 (although the powder measure has never varied more than .02 grns). Can't make 9mm, .30 Carbine and some other cartridges as fast (only about 400 - 450 hr) due to the fact that cartridge requires powder that fills the case up so much that during manual advancement, the powder will spill a little when it "clicks" into position. Dillons No BS warranty is great, Any part that I've broke (the few times it happened it was my fault) was quickly replaced at no charge.

I predict that no team will break 100 wins.

I'll go 124

He was high centered.

Lets see. Shooter discharges a round that strikes another person's rifle at the loading table and then denies causing the damage to the rifle. I would call this person negligent, dangerous, irresponsible and a few other things that can't be printed here. I sure as hell wouldn't want to shoot with this person and if I had anything to do with the range and/or match, this person would be banned from the match/range for life.

Looks like a contrite dog and the instigator behind her attempting to sneak a velvet pie.

Every one I've stepped on had guts.

A good alias would have been Leroy Brown!

Years ago, I was wiring a store in north Tampa a few doors down from a Publix supermarket which was the plaza anchor. Next to the plaza was the entryway to nudist resort, I think it was called Paradise Lakes but I'm not sure on that. Anyway, I went over to Publix at lunchtime to get a sub. When I paid for the sub, they gave me back a few new $2 bills for change, I thought it was strange as $2 bills aren't common these days. The next day at lunchtime, I got the fried chicken lunch from Publix and again, they gave me back some new $2 bills as change. I asked the cashier what was the deal with the $2 bills. The cashier told me that the nudist resort residents were using $2 bills in the local community to show that the nudists were contributing to the local economy and to show their "buying" power. I made sure that I didn't spend the $2 bills anywhere near north Tampa. Say....Sassnetguy....you aren't from Tampa, are you?

That's what I mean, even the Australian alien bunnies are dangerous! The bears wouldn't stand a chance against the hordes of rabbits...not even with the Holy Hand Grenade.

That's because all of the other Australian animals/insects would kill and eat them.

Get yourselves some Susan B. Anthony dollars. You'll really blow their minds.

The gun is designed for a right-handed person. This is what happens when you shoot it left-handed!

I know a guy (that likes shooting hot loads) that has one. He was shooting reloads in it one day, one went pop, he cocked hammer again and realized that the previous one was a squib so he safely remedied the situation and stopped shooting the gun. Took it home and removed the bullet from the barrel without damage to the barrel. When he told me what had occurred later, he said "I wonder what would have happened if I'd have shot the next one?" I replied, "Probably would have ruined your sex life." He was not amused.

Pittsburgh thing?

The first on is the Mascotte Police Dept in Florida. They are real proud of their radar units and (unlike shown here) have very little sense of humor. Don't ask how I know this...but I know this as I used to go through Mascotte twenty-four times a year, to and from a CAS match, for 20 years. If you're traveling on Florida SR50 and come upon the little town of Mascotte, pay attention to the speed limit, especially where it changes from 55 to 45 and then to 35. Groveland, the town to the east of Mascotte, is just a bad.
