Buying a used dillon 650, with no DVD and thought maybe could send me theirs for a bit while I learn how to set it up? Benos has it $20 but I'm sure there's one collecting dust somewhere.
Discrete paypal can be used.
 
If I had one I would send it your way, but Dillon didn't include a dvd when I purchased.

FWIW, the instructions that were included were clear and I didn't have many issues with setup. The only problem I recall was setting the powder drop/flare in stage 2. The instructions separate bottle neck and strait wall setup. I would advise reading all the way through before proceeding to reading/doing, step by step. In addition, pressing back on the lever to seat the primer was a little odd at first and I managed to charge some cases w/o priming. If you use compressed air to clean it off, remove the little buttons from the shell plate first! :)

They're great machines. Hope you enjoy it.
 
I bought a used 650 with case feeder and just used the manual and youtube videos for set up and operation. Even Brian Enos, who sells Dillon products, don't consider the DVD necessary if the customer is already familiar with reloading - http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=114937&p=1307537

BTW, here's the pdf link for 650 manual - http://dillonhelp.com/Dillon Manual PDFs/XL650v6p1.pdf

Tip: If you are using shorter body dies like Lee, use the lock ring below the tool head.


Here are some Dillon videos I found specific to 650:

Thanks guys for the awesome links and Lee die lock ring advice, didn't think of that. I've got a dvd coming and now a multitude of advice here. I'm sure I'll be back with more problems.
