I am getting fed up with the Dillon die and wrench adjustment. It seems that the Dillon is the only one that doesn't have some sort of fine adjustment. What die would you recommend that work with the Dillon 550?

I have setup my 550B with a Redding bullet seater die with micrometer adjustment for .223. Just tried it last week and I have to say, I love it. Can't wait to try it out on other bullet types as you can write down the setting and return to where you were whenever you change bullets. It's so easy to adjust as it has a thimble just like a 1" micrometer. No tools needed.

I'm sure it would work equally well for pistol, it's just that I only shoot one kind of bullet in my .45.
