I can’t say I’m not disappointed in this “comparison”. The thing I waited two years for was mostly to see which progressive press loaded the best ammo. Concentricity, accuracy tests etc. maybe which one has the best powder measure or what ones the fastest, smoothest, most ergonomic. These are things people can not learn themselves without taking random guys word on forums. You would need to buy and then try. What we got is a brief overview of specs, accessories, and price, which can be come by through basic research. I don’t even know how this would take two years. Almost like it’s targeted to those brand new to reloading and don’t even know what a progressive press advantages are. Most of us know what can be done with more stations and that you can add case and bullet feeders. The things we are unable to learn ourselves are the exact things you did not cover.

Hey Gavin, I want to thank you for putting in the hours to get this done. I've been watching a lot of your content over the last couple of weeks as I prepare to start my reloading journey. After doing quite a bit of my own research, and waiting for my head to stop spinning, I had my mind all but set on the Lee Pro 4000 but really was looking for a cumulative comparison of what's out there. This video hit it out of the park for me. Everything about it, the costs associated, pros and cons, comparing everything available from each manufacturer, optional accessories, jist really top notch presentation all the way. Much appreciated!

I use a loadmaster, but deprime on a C-press, and prime on a bench prime. Only clean primed cases are ever on the press so it stays clean. Resize on 1, powder on 2, powder-cop on 3, seat on 4, crimp on 5. This arrangement solved all my problems with the loadmaster.
@bruceinoz8002
@bruceinoz8002 Год назад
My introduction to all this Gee-Whiz gear was way back in the late 1970s and spending some time with a Dillon 1000, set up to reload .308 Win. WAY out of my personal financial league, but it clearly showed the way for the well-heeled enthusiast. However, I run a Lee 1000 for 9mmP. VERY early on I learned about the problems of primer feed / seating and powder "spillage" ( if you try to go too fast , a few flakes will sometimes "shake" out of the case as it approaches the seating station. These magically seems to find its way into the "guts" of the mechanism and start to gum things up The issue of "primer crud" getting into teh press was solved by Carbide sizing ALL the cases on my Rockchucker. Cases are then sorted into crimped "range pickups" and "un-crimped" commrcial style. The crimped ones get a once-only treatment from my fabulous Dillon 600 primer pocket "adjuster". If you "recycle" a lot of ex-mil brass, this is the ONLY pocket swager to buy, I had endless dramas with both the CH and RCBS press-mounted systems . The Dillon is better than Smirnoff!. Prepped brass gets a whirl in the trusty Lyman Cyclone to remove ALL the remaining detritus. Thus, ONLY fully-prepped and clean and shiny cases go through the 1000. I do all this case prep in bulk; several thousand at a time. The finished and FULLY DRIED cases then go into AIRTIGHT storage jars with a date label. So, no rummaging around for suitable brass come match season; it will be there , sparkling, on the storage shelf. It also means that you will have weeded out the dubious cases somewhere along that preparation chain. See also: culling out the "small-primered" 45ACP "NT" cases from the "normal" ones". In these parts, weeding out Berdan-primed brass is also a must. Not that it is "un-reloadable", just you cannot do it on a progressive press set up for Boxer primers. Waste not, want not, especially if you live in places where ammo and components cost at least 3 times the US MSRP. One additional thing about the 1000: the indexing "drive-shaft" arrangement is marginal, at best. The dinky nylon "follower" is not immortal and, as it wears, the press "timing" goes astray.. I lube the entire machine with Moly powder, NEVER any oil or grease. This slicks things up substantially, BUT, as soon as you notice a bit of "sluggishness" or misalignment, it is time for a full service. Spares are cheap; keep a stash of any of the small plastic bits handy. Moving the "heavy" sizing and priming operations off-press substantially reduces the wear and tear on the press even if, like me, you run with the Lee case and bullet feeder extras. Finally, the "Auto-Disk powder systems work better with all the moving parts receiving a rub-over of graphite powder. Also LOTS of videos about "hot-rodding the 1000 hereabouts.

Gavin, about 12 years ago I got into reloading. I started with a single stage kit, the RCBS Rock Chucker. Within a month I was ready for more and I watched all the videos you had, specifically focusing on caliber change over. This is why I went with the Hornady LNL AP. Over the years I've added lights and a 3D printed case feeder, picked for the ceiling height requirement over a motorized case feeder. I will say this, if I had it all to do over again, I'd get the Frankford Arsenal X10 no holds bar, but I'd have to check the height of the case feeder. Love my Inline Fabrication quick change flush mount. As for future subjects, Buller Feeders for .223 & .308, (pistol as well) possibly including 3D printed ones and after market like Double Alpha. Oh, and one of the reasons I like gravity feed over motor feed, besides lack of height, is you don't need change over parts. Yeah you get into a bottle neck when you have to reload tubes, but that happens with powder and primers too.

Very impressed with the video. Nice to see the comparisons on a variety of presses. I have very minimal experience on a Dillon 550 back in the early 90s. Right now I have two Lee Loadmasters for six handgun calibers. One for small primers and one for larges primers. One thing I wish he would have touched on is whether the priming is on the upstroke or downstroke. Being a member of the Lee cult it does make a difference.

When discussing Dillon loaders I was waiting for you to mention one of the most important specs. The lifetime warranty. I have two 550s over 15 years old and have loaded so much ammo on them that one has been rebuilt once and the other twice. Free. Something breaks or wears out, they have replaced it or provided parts to rebuild it. Plus, I understood you to talk about "manual index" as a negative. You can index as slowly as you want or as fast when it is manual. If you are loading an almost full pistol case you can index slow enough that you aren't jumping powder out. A positive to me.

thanks for the shoot out . I for one have had the Lee presses for years and always had problems with them to the point both loadmasters went to single loading cases pre-primed ( I gave up ) to changing the powder measure as I got some foots . But I went to Dillon this year and OMG what a difference Smoother easier and they work . for the 9mm I changed the powder expansion die to Double Alpha Bullet feeder die as it mad a big help seating the heads without scraping the FMJ off .I went for 2 XL750 one small primer one large ( 9mm and .44mag ) I dont load that much but wanted to be able to just walk in and load some ammo as and when I needed it . Yes i big lay out but worth it for my time and ease of use . So for me it is not all about $$ pre load its about ease of use and smooth loading. If there is one thing I would like to change is the primers feed I would love the Apex 10 auto primer set up just so you can tip a box it and away you go, I just have to make do with another double Alpha's primer loader. its funny here in the UK most people go for the cheapest option me I want a good life :)

@gavin Lee has a new Progressive Press coming out with a six die positions and primes on the downstroke, so all six are available. It's called the Pro 6000.

Started on my reloading journey with the Lee hand tools and shotgun press over 40 years ago. Graduated 20 years later on to a used Dillon RL550B because the price was right. Upgrading process and parts/tools as budget allows. 550B has been solid, reliable, fully supported by both company and community probably the single best investment in a machine. Also have a MEC single stage for processing and load development. My advice to a new loader would be a progressive and the 550 series with its semi progressive and upgradable nature i think is the sweet spot and has good resale value. If you are just starting ona budget go with Lee if you know you are hooked go with Dillon save up if need be. Articles about starting with single stage instead of progressive are not spot on and the 550 series is where the value in production and control, and small learning curve

As a noob i really appreciate your comment. What I'm totally lost on is- I'm looking for a progressive press that will have the most variety/ability to do different rounds ex. .223, 9mm, 762x39, .45acp, .357, .38, 7mm, .308, 30-06, 30-30 etc etc. Can i simply buy the "dies" for each round or am i limited by the machine? Is there a press that can do them all? Thank you

@@thomasjefferson6334 the Dillon 550 just needs dies, and a shell plate and locator pins ( caliber conversion kit) for each caliber. Sometimes a different powder bar. I know lots of books say start with a non progressive press but as an intermediate reloader i would go strait for the 550. It is manual indexing and you can do one at a time but it's easy to progressively reload at a comfortable pace

Great video! I've got a Hornady LNL now. But I started with an old hand me down RCBS RC2. I loaded just under 20K in my first 13 months with that old press! At over 145K combined now...

I use the auto breech lock pro for 9mm. Got it because I had the Lee safety primer and powder drum already from the Lee classic turret. I absolutely love it and I love the safety primer system. With me it works and it separates the primer.

In all fairness everyone has their own opinion. Gavin does give a good review as a whole. None of these machines would be on the market today if there were not people buying them enough for them to stay in business building them. They all work. I personally have a Dillon but that is just my choice at the time. They will be in business if I need parts and their warranty is as good as it gets. Not saying any of the others are any better or worse. Most all of them have plusses and minuses. I don't believe there is a perfect progressive press.

The Lee factory crimp/carbide resize pistol die is amazing. Produces very nice cartridges. Also the colllet neck sizing for rifles.

I am so grateful for this video. I'm just getting into reloading, and this video helped me narrow down my choices. I'm between the Hornady Lock-N-Load AP and the Dillon XL-750. I don't want to start at the bottom and work my way up. I am probably buying my last Press first. The choice isn't made, but it's much narrower now. Thank You, very much.

Which one did you go with? Funny enough those are the two im looking at the begin my reloading journey as well. I dont like starting off too basic either. My 3rd option considered would probably be the lee pro 6000.

I have 7 Dillon square deals 2 550's one in 30-06 and the other in 300 win mag 2 SL900 12 & 20 gauge 2 mec shotgun reloaders 16 & 28 gauges and Forster coax ///// I reload for 58 different calibers and 4 shotgun gauges . I started to reload in 1980 @ the age of 20 I was ery poor at the time and my first 30-06 ammo came from WWII blank ammo , I pulled the flash powder and de-primed the cases and chamfered out the primer pocket and then reloaded oer 1000 free Blank cases and got on an average 12 to 15 reload's for my M Garand.
