You tell them TimW77.

The truth of the matter is my XL650 takes no more than 15, sometimes less than 10 minuets for a total change of calibers including primmer size, powder measure, case feeder, and everything else. I don’t believe any other press can be much quicker. And with its true production rate of 750+/hr I don’t think any other press can out produce it, except the 1050. Isn’t that the reason we load on a progressive in the first place? Now I will admit that with all the extras the 650 will cost a little more than most, but I don’t care. I have guns that cost a little more than most too.
