Or you can go with a cheaper Lee setup (AKA tomatostake reloader) http://www.leeprecision.com/cgi/catalog/browse.cgi?127363087 2.3796=/html/catalog/classic.html#50BMG |

Fella's; I've got Dillon reloading equipment, a fair amount of it. It's damn good stuff. I've also got one item of Lee. It's good, it works, it's built to a price point & it shows. I have no interest in aquiring or reloading for a .50BMG & a big reason is the cost. However, if it were something that for whatever reason had to happen, I'd bite the bullet & pay for the Dillon. However, I think I'd rather use my .338 Winchester magnum & shoot the reason that was trying to force me to spend that much money.

If I was to get a 50, I'd think abough getting an old cast iron press at a gun show, maybe a herter. These cost about $20 with some rust! Then I'd just rebore and tape the top of the O press to the 1.25 and tap. Probably have to make or modify a shell holder but it would be well under $75 for the press, then add the Lee dies. for the single and bolt 50s, I don't think mush would be needed. If I got an Semi-Auto, then maybe the Dillion! |

that's good thinking Bear.....some of those old Herters presses were hell built for stout! If someone could afford the semi-auto .50 BMG they could afford the Dillon reloader. CB....the Dillon IS good stuff! Lee stuff works too. |

I use a herters press. The only bad thing about it is it uses non-standard shell holders. RCBS does make an adapter. I like it alot. Saw one at a gun show a couple of weeks ago for $12.00. I thought that was a pretty good deal.

Wing never hurts to have a spare. They only will last about 400 years with rugged use!!!

I looked at it real close. I passed only because I don't need another press. It did look like new. No rust. Tas has one just like it. I thought about him, but figured it would cost about six times what I paid for the press to ship it.
