Did you get one of Dillons brass/media separators?

Makes a messy job real clean and fast.

I hate you.
I load for .45, .44Mag, .357, .38 Special, .308, .223, 7.62x39, 30/30 and 7mmRM. All on a crappy single stage Lee press. So far my $20 press has lasted for about 10k rounds. I use a colander for media seperation. It's funny how much loading time you have available when you don't have cable. Congratulations, and don't let your powder run low.

Hey Poodleshooter.
I did the same thing.
Worked with a RCBS Rockchucker for 10+ years.

Then about 10 years ago I bought a Dillon 550 just like Wirblewind just bought.

That was when I discovered what a FM was.
Me, for waiting so long to upgrade reloading equipment.

Go for it, you'll be kicking your ass for having waited so long.

10,000 rounds? That's a DAY with a Dillon machine.
