I've done my 38 super ammo with 550, with 9mm shellplate and buttons. I'm thinking about getting a 650, and I now noticed that for 650, there's a specific kit for 38 super comp:

650 conversion kits:

9mm/.38 Super #21109
.38 Super Comp #16902


So, I guess that the 9mm/38super would work with all kinds of 9mm/38super/38supercomp, and the 38 super comp -plate works only with rimless brass. Am I right?

This kit isn't in the XL650 manual on the Dillon site, so I guess it's a rather new addition.

I have found that sometimes the 38 sup comp brass will slid out
from under the buttons and the case tip over in the shell plate
when moving into the primer pressing in position, if i move the
handle to fast. I have to sort the brass and load sup comp
by its self. ^_^
I've been told, that you can miss fast enough to win...

I believe the only difference is in the shell plate, super comp and .223/5.56 shell plates are the same. I don't think I had to get different locator buttons.

I know some people who don't bother to sort out the super comp from super brass, they reload it all together.

I've done this so far with the 9mm kit, and I've got a few escaped brass sometimes, just like Slip knot described. Not too much to be a problem though.

On a 650, if you are loading 9mm/38 Super, to load 38 Supercomp, you just need:
SKU: 13345 650 Shellplate - 38 Supercomp/223
be
If you created it you can change it; otherwise, forget it.
