Using different expander die with Dillon XL650?
I would like to expand some cases while using a Dillon XL650 but unfortunately the dies are not available from Dillon. What is the best way of handling this using a separate die than the combination powder funnel/expander setup? Should I put the die in Station 1 and de-prime separately or put it in Station #3 or?

I have always had a single stage press.(Lee)
I also have a Lee 1000 progressive.
I always go back to the single stage for precision reloading and certain deeds that need to be performed.

My preference would be in 3 as I don't use a powder cop.

Same here as far as no powder cop. My only concern was shoving an expander in the case with powder in it.bgw45 wrote:My preference would be in 3 as I don't use a powder cop.

Beezer, how much powder are we talking here? It's no where close to the expander .
