i have an RCBS rock i've had from the nineties for which i've only loaded rifle but wish to switch over to a piggy back,,i just can't go out and get a 550 Dillion because of $$$$,,are the newer piggy back progressives for loading up pistols any good?, i can't go into single stage pistol again because of the time in doing so.

Hmm,, perhaps a dillion,,and a revolver ,,"Smith & Wesson' for big framed shooters,,i always thought they shot well.

I just saw a Piggyback conversion at a gun shop. The reduced "sale" price was still over $300! For that kind of money, I would look for a used Dillon 550. Dillon has a lifetime warantee, so I would not hesitate to buy a used one. My 550 is over 20 years old and still runs like a champ.
