I have made my decision... mostly. I want to buy a Dillion progressive press probably just a square deal as I own 4 guns in one caliber.. .357.
So where does one buy a dillion other than from the website.. or is that the preffered way/place to do so??
And.. does anyone have an old Square deal they want to shed?
Soap Box, Ballot Box, Ammo Box
in that order.

I would look at your local gun shops that deal in reloading supplies. I have 1 shop near me that carries redding equipment and another that carries dillon.
I've been thinking about getting a Ponsness/Warren P-200. Not automated. It's a manual index. They say you can get 200 rounds an hour and a new one is $250. My dad has a couple and loves them. He also has a few Star presses. Doesn't use any of it anymore and won't sell. Greedy old man.
Support your local IHMSA range.

Pinetor, I own a Dillon RL 550B which a step up from the Square Deal B.
It is the best reloading setup I have ever owned. My suggestion is to go to
the Dillon website and read about the features of the different models. The
SDB will only use Dillon dies and is not as versatile ,the 550B is manual
indexed . I brought mine several years ago from a local sporting goods
store which is a dealer. I have ordered from Dillon (online) many accessories.
I currently reload on the Dillon 44mag, 41mag,357magand 38sp. I am thinking
of adding 9mm and 45acp. With the proper accessories I switch calibers in less
than 5minutes.

It is very hard to find a deal on a Dillon. Dealers sell for about the same price as Dillon and used ones seem to go for only about $50 less than new. IMHO, just buy direct from Dillon. And Dillon's service is absolutely unbeatable.
I can load 400 rounds an hour on my SDB but I like to load a little bit more leisurely - 300 rounds an hour.
