Who put that there? It was there, then it disappeared, now it's back. Somebody playing tricks on me!!! I looked at the list several times.

Congrats! I stand when loading with mine and for me I changed the height of my desk when I moved it into my house and it happened to be the right height for me.I just ordered everything in my cart, $750. I already have the RCBS ChargeMaster Combo and some other small stuff. I did get the Dillon Strong arm mount but I'm not sure if I'm going to like the height of the press with it.
There's their retired shooter they sponsored,can't remember his name. I don't know we're else you can get their stuff.Is it the best pricing to order direct from Dillon? I'm about to accuire a XL650... I'm gettin' the itch!
I bought the 3-4 pack of extra primer tubes then never used them. I liked it better to stop and load the tube back up and have a look see at everything to make sure I was doing OK.+1 on the spare parts kit. Dillon will replace anything that breaks under warranty, but it is nice to have the pieces on hand so you can continue on without waiting for the postal circus to bring you a 50-cent part.
Personally I find the standard ball handle very comfortable and easy to use. I haven't tried a roller handle but don't see how it could be much better than the ball.
As I read your list, it looks like you have everything you will need from Dillon for the machine to load those two calibers.
If you plan on loading a lot of ammo at a time extra primer pick-up tubes are handy. Although having to take a minute to fill them is a nice break too.
As stated earlier, the Dillon primer flip tray is a nice item. There are others that work but the Dillon is better.
If you are considering a digital scale I have been very happy with my Dillon.
For myself I prefer digital calipers to dial. Either works fine.

It raises the press to a more comfortable height for me, it provides a mounting place for the bullet tray, and it braces the bench top if you have it mounted to a flimsy bench. I don't know why Dillon doesn't make a bench top bracket for the bullet tray without a Strong Mount for those that don't want the Strong Mount.What is the advantage/purpose of the strong mounts? My 550B is bolted hard to the lumber of my tool bench in the garage and works just fine from a standing position. Is it to raise the machine?
