Dillon's new RL-550 case feeder
I saw one at the Dillon store in Scottsdale. Back prior to having a child, there would have been one waiting for me when I got back to WV, but I have lost the ability to spend money.

I don't shoot nearly as much revolver ammo as I did, either, so the extra speed wouldn't be that big a benefit to me. It looked like a pretty solid addition to the RL-550 they had there as a demo. With one of these, all you need to do is sit bullets on your cases and flip the little star thingy. No carpal tunnel from grabbing cases by hand, and the feeder flips them all right-side up. It isn't all that noisy to operate, and it doesn't get in the way of anything you need to do or see while reloading. I didn't ask, but my impression is that this feeder does pistol caliber cases only.

I might have asked, but I am kind of sheepish about using the sales staff's time asking questions when I know good and well I'm not planning to buy something.

If it is built like the one for the 650, it will
have different plates for different cases. The plate being the round device that rotates in the
case feeder.
