good deal on a 550b ? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I have the chance to pick up a 550b that includes all equipent needed for press, including powder system, large and small primer feed tubes and 4 primer tubes (2 small, 2 large) and a 9mm conversion(minus dies) for $300 or I can get it with a 45 conversion for $350 shipped.

I am really wanting to upgrade from my loadmaster.

Thats a pretty good deal. I paid around the same, but without the conversion.

I say go for it!

I didn't see 9mm or .45 in your listed arms. Is it incomplete or are you getting saddled with something that you really don't need just to get the press at a good price?

First off; Don't you boys out there in West Texas have any gun shops? If so, why aren't you checking with them? You might be surprised at the bargains you could get dealing locally. Secondly; How about checking on the Brian Enos web site Brian Enos’s Practical Shooting Online Store He's known for customer care and sells a lot of Dillon presses (almost as good as dealing locally, except the money goes elsewhere (helps their economy, rather than yours)).

my list is a little out of date, I have a 9mm and I could get the press with just the 9mm for $320 shipped. I am planning on getting a 45 tho.

thats not a bad price, you'll be happy with the press to.

Are you getting any die plates or just the standard conversion kit(shell plate/powder funny)
