Guys,

I bought a 550b years ago to load .357 SIG. When I moved to my house 3 years ago I packed it up and haven't used it since. I need to convert it to .45 ACP. Does anyone know exactly what I need to order from Dillon to get it going for .45?

1. Dies
2. Caliber conversion kit.
3. Primer pickup tubes (4 pack).

Do I need anything else? I don't plan to load .357 SIG anytime soon.

Do you have the large primer feed parts?
At least an inner magazine tube and cup. No need for a whole other assembly if you don't plan to go back to .357S.

Greg, you should already have the primer pick-up tubes for large and small primers and the cups too. All you need is the coversion kit and the dies for .45ACP.
Also you should already have the large and small powder bars for the powder measure.

Who has the best price on 230 grain FMJ .45 bullets?

Who has the best price on 230 grain FMJ .45 bullets? I just got ripped off on some "Zero" bullets at 55 for 500.
