Hi am new to the forum and new to reloading.
I am using a Dillion 550B.
My question is the tool heads and the deluxe tool head system, do I need spares of them?
How long does it take to actually change everything out with the one tool head that comes with the press?
I will be hopefully reloading the following on this press:
9mm
38/357
32acp
.380
44 mag
I know I need the caliber conversion kits, but the rest seems rather
expensive.
If I didnt buy the deluxe tool head assembly route.
What does the following setup sound like for each caliber?
1 conversion kit
1 toolhead with powder die
1 powder bar.
That runs about 90 bucks total vs 135 for a deluxe kit and the caliber conversion kit.
Also is changing powder bars necessary. Would these speed up or make easier the change process or would this just cause more aggravation.
thanks
