getting a dillon but can't let go of my lee turret

[Garrobo]

I sometimes

reload cartridges on a Rock Crusher if I only want 50 handgun or a box of rifle ammo. No use setting up a rotary rig for these small amounts. I actually enjoy it.

I still have my rockchucker and a couple more I found over the years... I used lee 1000's for years in college- mostly set up for different cartridges... I have dillon 550-650-and a 1050 and will not likely get rid of the lees... they work for me.

Now have three presses on my bench two Dillon Square Deals & Lee Classic turret that turns out hundreds of 223/5.56 a week. And can change calibers in minutes.
Keep the Lee and enjoy your new Dillon.

Another vote for "totally valid". In fact I'd suggest that if you did commit to the Dillon by selling the turret you'd soon be looking to buy another one.

I would not want to give up my single stage or the older Lyman turret either. My Dillon 550b is my main press for the widely used calibers I shoot. But I load my less used calibers and rifle rounds on the single or turret because the numbers I shoot of those don't justify buying a shell plate kit and the time taken to do changeovers.

Valid! The 650 is awesome for volume but load development and small batches ain't its thang.
