WTB Dillon 550 FOUND ONE!!!

[snapnek]

Looking for someone that has a used Dillon 550 for sale. I'm going to reloading mainly .45acp. I might be willing to trade .40 ammo.
Thanks!

Dosen't look like anyone has one for sale. Where would be the best place to buy one new?
Thanks

Brian Enos, he has a forum and is great to deal with. You can also try Larry at Louisiana gun and reloading supply he is a member here and is located on Jefferson.

Will do!
Thanks!

If you can find Ed's Reloading Supply on eBay I bought all of my Dillion stuff from him. You can go to Bing.com and type in Wii and a coupon for 8% off any eBay purchase comes up.

When I bought my Dillion the coupon was like 20% and I got a 650 for much cheaper than I could have bought a 550.

Now that I've been reloading for a while and having used the 550 and 650 I would have rather had the 550.


Also, if you come into Baton Rouge give Larry a shot on the 550. It might not be the best price you see but you are guaranteed the best customer service from some good people. I do a lot of business with them and anticipate doing a lot more in the future.

I got one recently and love it
there are plenty of local sources, even several BS sponsors that sell Dillon and have them in stock.

Plus one for Larry and if you have trouble, can you call ebay and ask them for help..

Or.........Dillon.com

No, but you can call Dillion. Or you can call the dealer you bought from?

A couple hundred dollars was worth it for me.

Couldn't find Ed's or coupon...........

 

[TDH]

Did you go to bing.com and type in wii and then click the eBay cashback link?

If you did it correctly you would have got a banner that said 8% off at the top of eBay.

Send Ed a message from his site or call him and ask him to list it for you

Curious minds want to know : why exactly?

Curious minds want to know : why exactly?

It's not significantly faster, parts are much more expensive, it takes longer to do a caliber change, the auto indexing has a tendency to slosh a little powder when indexing, and the case feeder is almost a necessity with the 650.

I could go on, but was hoping that would be sufficient

I have always bought my Dillon Presses and parts from Dillon directly, if you locate a used 550 press and need the .45acp conversion kit and die set, I have a used complete set, both retail for nearly $120.00, PM me if you would like to make an offer

FOUND! Dillon 550B

I just bought a used Dillon 550b! A friend of mine called to tell me about a guy in town selling a Dillon 550b. Made a phone call and the deal was done. After getting messed over on the last deal, I have proof that things happen for a reason and good people are still out there. I got the reloader with .45acp and 45LC dies, etc/Dillon tumber/RCBS scale/other stuff that I don't even kown the name of/5lbs of powder and 5000 winchester large pistol primers, all of this for less than the "money in hand" deal. Thank you seller and buyer of that deal, without you I wouldn't have made this deal!!
