Ok so some things are starting to come up as I try to get ready for the new press.

If I deprime, prime, etc all in the same go at things how does that all work.

Do you clean your primer pockets? OR just keep going?

I guess that is my main question. I will be starting with .45acp on the dillon and I do not always clean my primer pockets for .45 practice rounds as it is, but I was just wondering.

I always clean for my .223 so not sure what to do when I get to that point.

How about the powder check gauge is it reliable?

If I get just the 650 xl is there anything I have to have to get going. I know about all the options, but at the moment I just want to get it up and running then I am sure I will order some of the extras.

Anything else I should know before I get rolling with the new 650? I have been reloading 2-3000 rounds a year on a single stage so I am excited to be able to shoot without thinking "ah damn there goes another hour in the basement".

Any help is great.
