Dillon 650 Ordered, what is current wait time?

[cjherrman]

Just ordered a 650 without anything crazy, just case feeder, no dies. What have you guys experienced as the current wait?

 

[drn1234]

I was just shopping for one and the local shop said 6-8 weeks is what they are seeing.

 

[Silverbullet2]

Sounds about right, I ordered a few small parts for mine, and it was 8 weeks. I have been a Dillon user for about 20 years, and have never seen wait times like this. I bet they are selling machines like nobody's business. Good on them. They have always been stellar to work with. J

 

[rrflyer]

I would plan at least 2 months.

 

[Joey Dean]

Small parts that I ordered 5/7 came in via FedEx on 5/12. This was direct from Dillon. I have other items that I ordered through Brian Enos that I have not seen from a three week ago order. They were a bit beyond the small part category, however.

Consider that Brian Enos has stuff drop shipped from Dillon so the wait will be considerable.
One un tapped source of machines might Scheels Sports shops. A chain in the Midwest has been source for some 650 and 550 machines.
Things are unpredictable. It is wild to hear people paying $200 premium for a press, $50 over retail for conversion kits.

I ordered my 650 from Brian Enos right after the first of the year. The case feeder came at about 5 weeks. The press and all the rest of the stuff showed up at about week 7.

Well lets keep this going informing people of the wait times.

I just got mine a month ago and it took either 11 or twelve weeks before I got the loader but all the other parts and accessories came before that.

 

[SDTA]

I got mine in about 8 weeks. Sporatic parts delivered along the way. I was not happy with the shipping. The original invoice said $21 shipping. They would send me a die set for $17.95 shipping, a case sorter for $25 shipping and so on. I bet I had close to $100 shipping by the time it all came. I wish they would have shipped it all at once.

 

[Pinecone]

At that price, I should load up what I have and sell my press.

Order a new one and just be without for a while.

Ordered a 550b with 9mm dies and some small items from Brian Enos on Monday (5/20). He's quoting 4-8 weeks. I'm fully prepared to wait that long. Will update when press comes in.

Call John at ...gunstop.com 952-474-0211

He has some of 550, 650 and 1150's

 

[Triggerf16]

Grafs.com has some in stock as well.

 

[Wisconsinner]

I purchased some .308 dies without much thought didn't see any shipping information via e-mail, so I called today for an approximate delivery time, The customer service rep said 14 freakin weeks! I sure hope this isn't true with your 650.

 

[cjherrman]

Well what is really painful is I ordered the 650 through enos and now found one in stock. I am going to contact enos tue to see about canceling without being charged a credit card fee.

 

[cjherrman]

Well I guess Grafs is out of stock now so it doesn't matter. Back to waiting. Does anyone know how the priming on a 550 compares to the 650 better worse? I have had the 550

 

[ED_RN]

Guys there are 550s and 650s stacked on floor at the gunstop.com call them 952 474 0211

 

[cjherrman]

Thanks for the heads up. Just got my casefeeder and waiting on my 650 still. Hope it comes soon.
