Match loads: Dillon 550 vs Hornady LnL progressive

[marley]

Lock N Load press is very well made but, mine got sent down the road as it would not allow one to adjust primer depth and lack of a stage to de-crimp the primer pocket. So, sold the Lock N Load and purchased a Dillon 1050.

Before the Lock N Load I used a Dillon 550 and there were no problems with getting 1/2" accuracy out of the ammo I produced on it.

Now, like others I use a Forster Co-Axial press (or a single stage press) for serious load development.

The lack of a stage to swage primer pockets is one reason I'm about to buy a Dillon. I'm between the 1050 and the 750 with a "Swage It" add-on.

As long as its a Dillon you will not regret it.
