| I'm on the Dillon webpage and going through the XL650 it lists options like a bullet puller, which vibratory case cleaner you want, cleaning media, electric case trimmer, etc... are all these things included in the Super 1050? It only lists 3 options for the 1050... can someone list exactly what comes with the 1050? I'm just starting out and have no equipment and want to buy everything I need with one order from them. |
| The 1050 is set up ready to load and includes the dies and the casefeeder. Neither of those is included with the 650 press. The 1050 has a built in primer pocket swager whereas on the 650 that is not done on the press at all and needs to be addressed separately. |

I'm going to recommend you not start with an automatic progressive press until you learn the fundamentals of reloading.
A Dillon 550 or an RCBS Pro 2000 are manual progressive presses that will crank out a bunch of ammunition. They can also be operated with a case going through one step at a time so if there is a goof up the operator simply stop to correct the problem. An auto progressive moves the cases to the next operation, so the problem has to be corrected plus all the cases must be repositioned to the prior step. A 1050 is a lot to bite off when you need to be able to focus on the fundamentals. |
