hey guys, i'm trying to set up my 550b to prep a whole crap load of .308 win brass
this is my current set up
stage 1: lee decapping die
stage 2: empty (i can't put the trimmer here because it bumps in to the decapping die)
stage 3: dillon 1200 size/trim die
stage 4: rcbs full length sizing x-die with the decapping pin removed
do you think this will work to prep up a bunch of brass? i started with the single stage but figured while i had the cases lubed i might as well run them through the trimmer and right in to the x-die.
then i can take the prepped cases, hand prime them and have them ready for a quick tumble to for a few minutes to remove the excess lube. then all i have to do is set back up for a powder drop and bullet seating.
what do you guys think? best way to run them on the 550b?
thanks for the advice
