XL750 add-on's ?

[walter62]

What out of the box add-on's or options would you recommend (and vendor if that is allowed) for a NIB XL750 w/ Lee Carbide dies (9mm)

Keep it reasonable (and $thrifty$ if possible) for a noob first-round set of add-on's. No, no electric casefeed/bulletfeed at this time, nor multiple toolheads, etc

So far, I'm leaning toward:
1. dust cover
2. strong mount (or ultra mount)
3. DAA or Dillon powder check
4. shellplate bearing upgrade
5. camming pin bearing upgrade
6. DAA case feeder (cheap one w/ 6 tubes) ($55)
7. DAA powder funnel (I hear it's better than the Dillon)
8. Light/LED - KMS
9. Dillon upgraded handle <- already have this

Anything in the above list that is a no-go?

Anything else?

+1 on any type of casefeed

Parts kit wouldn't hurt to have

+1 on the parts kit...

I love my KMS UFO light on my 550c, they make one for the 750.

You mat have mentioned it, and I may have missed it, but-

Primer tubes.
You'd be amazed at how quickly you can empty one.
I'll burn one in about 15 mins on a 550, I'm sure a 750 will go faster.

Get extras, you won't regret it.

I’d look at inline fabrication they make some exceptional stuff for the dillons. I’ve got quite a bit of their accessories and none have disappointed.

Pretty sure my 650 came with a dust cover, I would hope that the 750 comes with one.
I upgraded the cam bearing, completed round ejector and the primer overflow tube to a small baby food jar thingamajig.
Also just installed a primer manual shutoff (uses magnets, pretty cool)
Casefeeder is mandatory (at least it should be..) or you should stick with a 550 or a single stage.
Check out ebay for lots of inventions to improve performance of the dillons.

A different brand of dies......

Thanks everyone.

Yes, extra primer tubes (for the impossible to find primers ) were going to be on the list
I'm using Lee carbide dies.
Dust cover is a definite
primer shutoff and case shutoff most likely
powder drainer most likely
definitely will get the KMS lighting and spare parts kit
will probably go for the DAA (?) cheap case feeder (looks like a gatling gun)
Ultramount definitely
