[QUOTE="JDD, post: 1641588, member: 102774"] my reloading process flows this way. I use a Dillion 650 with the powder measure removed. In place I put a powder dump die used for a 550 in its place. I set up one or two electric powder despensers. My rounds are shot ,ejected with out allowing any trauma to the case. I hand de-prime. I purchased a heated large hydroponic cleaner that I intend to use (I read such cleaning can have a effect on bullet pull. testing will be in order, I do not lube case necks but may have to start) The Dillion lack of height caused some problems with the 6.5x280 so I might move the process over to the hornady lock and load , I been avoiding the press because it won't deprime and reprise cases very long due to primer residue. The its extra hight may be asset though.. When running smoothly I can run a 100 rounds of match grade with individual weighed charges in a hour after cleaning with out breaking a sweat. I am not sure How to incorporate the double sizing. If somebody made a collet sizer and crimper with a spring loaded dial reading foot lbs . The sizer would indicate neck thickness/stiffnes problems. and the crimper could be dialed in a repeatable manner [/QUOTE]
