Dillon Square Deal B press

[SnoopLoggyDog]

Anyone else reload pistol ammo on a Dillon Square Deal B press? Mine has given me many years of trouble free service. I only reload .38 spl and 9mm on mine. Bought an extra toolhead to make caliber changes easier. I did purchase a spare parts kit for it, but have never needed any for repairs. Once a year, I tear it down for deep cleaning and to lube the internal parts. Hopefully, it and my Hornady Single Stage press will keep cranking ammo out for years to come.

I do! Just finished a batch of 45 auto. Made some nice ammo so far. Picked it up used. I also have extra tool heads and a set of 9 dies. Going to switch over and try 9 at some point soon.

Overall a good press and I would buy it again. Hope to shoot more in the future and upgrade it to a 650. For now it fits the bill pretty good coupled with a Lee single stage for rifle.

I load 38/357, 9mm, 45 ACP and 45 Colt on mine. I hope to add a 550 or even a 450 someday if I can find one at a good enough price for 30 carbine and 5.56 someday. The SDB does a great job for me.

I thought about getting one to compliment my 650 to use on some of the calibers I don't shoot much but haven't pulled the trigger. Considering the 550 as well being its capable of loading rifle as well as pistol.

I've loaded over 30,000 rounds on a Square Deal B. I had 2 of them. 1 for small primer and 1 for large primer. Sold one when I got my Super 1050. They're the perfect reloading press for pistol calibers.

I've had my SDB for over 5 yrs. I do 9mm, 45acp, 44spc and 44mag. Getting ready to get 380acp and 38spc dies. I don't load rifle so a SDB is perfect. Might even think about a 2nd one.

Yep 1 for small and 1 for large primers. Oh I appreciate the press!

My goal now is to find that one do all 9mm load so I can just crank it out in bulk.

Had mine for ~ 6 months, no issues. Mainly cranking out 38 spl.

I have 5 and a 550. Started with a SDB around 97 or 98 got a 550 in 99 when started shooting SASS. Some how they had 4 more SDBs. That's what I tell the wife. Loaded for 5 kids shooting SASS for several years, they get the job done.
