So I'm pretty heavily invested in 2 Dillon Square Deal Bs but after checking out a friend's 550b I've decided that I'll be selling the square deals and getting either a 550b or something else. The 550B is just much more comfortable to load on.
My biggest complaint about the square deal is 1- cant reload rifle cartridges with it. 2- it's a pretty compact press and it's hard to look in the cases to make sure the powder is dropping. 3- it uses proprietary dies.
I know that Dillon's no BS warranty is very good, I've used it on a few occasions and they always ship parts out quickly when I've needed them. However, I've never used any of the other big name presses. I'd like to hear your opinions on what press I should replace these two square deals with?
I do have an RCBS rockchucker that I use occasionally. It's what I started loading with several years ago until I bought my first square deal for higher volume 9mm loading.
