This will be my first post. Thanks to everyone for all the information that you provide for a noob like me.
After loading pistol ammo in 45 acp, 40 S&W and 357 sig, on a single stage Lyman, I decided to buy a progessive loader. After days of research it came down to the Hornady LNL and the Dillon 550. I went with the Hornady for no other reason than cost and the auto index feature.
Along with the press, I ordered the appropriate shell plates for my calibers, LNL conversion set to convert my Lyman and LNL bushings for all my dies.
Now for my questions:
1. Do I need to order any powder die expanders in order to use the powder drop system?
2. Other than grinding the Lee FCD, is there any other solution for the factory crimp die/ejector inter ference problem. (This is quite important, since the Lee FDC in the 357 sig is a God send)
Thanks for help,
Rich
