There are three important differences between the RL550 and XL 650:

1) The 650 has an additional station. This is very useful if you want a powder-check station.

2) The 650 auto-indexes. Manual indexing works fine, but if you really want to crank rounds through quickly, the auto-index makes a big difference.

3) The 650 has a casefeed option. This seems like an unnecessary luxury until you use one, but is *very* nice. You simply dump a box of cases in the hopper, turn it on, and crank the handle until you run out of primers or powder. I have managed over 600 rds. in one hour (and boy, your arm gets tired!).


You won't go wrong with either, but I personally suggest the XL650, even if you don't plan on getting the casefeeder (for now).
