Dillon RL 550C Progressive Reloading Press
The Dillon RL 550C Progressive Reloading Press is known for its exceptional versatility, reliability, and ease of use. As one of the most trusted machines in the Dillon Precision lineup, the RL 550C accommodates a broad range of cartridges—from 32 ACP up to powerhouse rounds like .338 Lapua, .416 Rigby, and .460 Weatherby Magnum. It’s the go-to choice for reloaders who demand flexibility without sacrificing performance.
The RL 550C features a manually indexed shellplate, making it ideal for those who want total control over each stage of the reloading process. Manual indexing allows new reloaders to master each operation at their own pace, while experienced users appreciate the added precision. With fewer parts required to change calibers, this press is also one of the most cost-effective solutions for multi-caliber reloading setups.
The updated “C” model introduces refinements for better maintenance and longevity. Threaded upper-link arm pivot pins now include a grease groove and external lubrication port, allowing you to use a needle fitting grease gun for quick and easy servicing. These upgrades enhance durability and reduce wear on moving parts—especially important for high-volume reloaders.
With a reputation built over decades and backed by Dillon’s famous lifetime warranty, the RL 550C remains a favorite among both beginner and professional reloaders who value consistency, craftsmanship, and control.
