I like the eccentric linkage, stronger than the "super" but it will load longer cases/rounds where the other lacks stroke.

I was wondering if they were going to finally produce a great progressive, looks more like a carry on as usual deal.

Yes, I remember 3d wax printers of the early 1990's ~ $250,000. Not as useful as my $120 anet 8.

I know of actual instances of both plastic and metal guns blowing up.

There are also other ways of running 3ph equipment on single phase. That don't have the costs that rotary converters have.

No, the 4 digit Dillon presses have a pocket swage station at #3 as part of the normal operations. Swaging is concurrent with loading, not an extra step, like when using a 550.

I suppose the same could be said of a 1050, that has a priming system that's acting up...
The plastic tip on the primer tube is my first suspect. The 4 digit Dillon's don't have the life time...

I met him in Frisco, when he gave me his first samples to try out. I didn't think I needed the product because I already have 8 over head lights in my fairly small reloading room/office. I was...

You can just process brass on them, just don't perform the steps you don't want to do.
Looks like this.

Yeah, I don't case gauge until the product is finished, I don't care as much if the case is good at the beginning of the process as after all are completed.

As much as I like to build things, I am with M-tecs on this one. Spend your effort setting up the 1050 right, both the swage station and primer station.
They are not the simplest press to setup...

If the ammunition is for several rifles of the same caliber, I use case gauges.

Or the rifle. Can't get much more accurate, don't even need to own, much less know how to use any measuring tools. As the actual chamber is your go/no go gauge.

Yep, I own that many single stage presses but own even more progressives, so I don't have to use them as much. :)
The OP's setup reminds me why turret presses exist.
