They're pricey but I can't imagine using my 650 without one now. It's a game changer.I need a case feeder
For some reason I was thinking they were like $400+, but they’re $300 msrp w shell plate. I’ll keep an eye out for a used one but will likely end up just ordering a case feeder and super swager for myself for Christmas. 😎They're pricey but I can't imagine using my 650 without one now.

I was looking at this too. Midway has them right now for $399. One thing I didn’t know is that Hornady has a rebate going for this whole year where if you buy a case feeder or press they give you 500 rounds of ammo from their list. You do have to pay $14.95 for S&H. I bought a press earlier this year and had no idea so will be doing a rebate for that and keep my eye out for the feeder to go on sale. get myself a 1,000 rounds of 9 and can sell that if I want and easily pay For the feeder with money left over for reloading supplies.For some reason I was thinking they were like $400+, but they’re $300 msrp w shell plate.

I have the DAA “manual” feeder for now.
I was referring to the Dillon case feeder, which is oddly cheaper than the Hornady but they’re not interchangeable either.I was looking at this too. Midway has them right now for $399.

win win.
Just filled out the rebate for the press and dies. 12 short weeks and I should have 600 rounds of 9mm.I was referring to the Dillon case feeder, which is oddly cheaper than the Hornady but they’re not interchangeable either.
I believe that promo is the same one Hornady has been running for years now, 500 free bullets. I took advantage when I bought my LNL AP a few years ago. I have a 3D printed case feeder on it that works quite well. I’ve heard too many stories of the Hornady case feeder being very finicky, so I don’t think I’ll bother with that one personally.
Finally finished loading 1155 rounds of .45ACP. I ordered 1000 255gr from X-treme and they sent 1155. Works for me.
Well Done.....1000 rounds!
I do not worry about the bullet, brass or powder but primers is another story.
That does not look like fun.
Was loading 223 with Remingtom small Rifle bench rest primers. Went to seat one...kaboom. Took me totally by surprised. I've loaded 150k on this press. This is the first time.Story? Can not keep hanging on. We learn from others mistakes.

any other damage (underwear damage does not count)
The blast magazine contained it mostly. The plastic rod that sits on the primers and trips the low primer buzzer was melted. A small metal bracket under the small primer disc was bent. Other than that its all good. Kinda remarkable. It was a whole 100 primers.any other damage (underwear damage does not count)
I had this happen in a single stage press once. It got my undivided attention. A whole stack of 100 would have soiled my linens
