I bought one a few mounths ago. Fantastic press. I highly recomend it. You will need to shell out some bucks for the lock rings if you use other manufacturers dies. I have gone through several presss over the years and this is the first one I really love. The open front design is what I like the most. And the universal shell holder works very well. I predict this will be the last single stage I ever buy. Although I don't try to prime with it. I use a hand tool for that.   KN

According to the guys on Snipers Hide, it's one of the best. Many competition guys use them. Right now, I'm debating a Co-Ax or Dillon 550B. I want the precision on the Co-Ax but the flexibility of the Dillon.

Best I've ever used. You won't be sorry. Alignment when seating bullets is great and what sold me, that and being able to switch dies immediately, without unscrewing them. They snap in & out. I hand seat primers as well, in a separate step.
