I’ve loaded tens of thousands of rounds on a friends dillon 550 for years and several thousands on another friends 650. Dillon makes a very good machine. However, when my daughter and son began to burn ammo, I needed a progressive. After one session on a Hornady Lock-N-Load AP there was no question in my mind that it was a better machine.
With the innovative ideas of the Hornady, I find it to have several advantages over the dillon for my loading needs. The fact that it is also significantly less in price had nothing to do with my choice of the Hornady L-N-L, but it was an added bonus.
Try loading on several machines before you buy.
Best, Shoney
