Sorry that I wasn't very clear on my description of things. Yes, I am loading my 30 Luger brass on a Dillon 650 progressive press. At station 2(after sizing and priming) the powder funnel enlarges the case neck and bells the case mouth, along with adding the powder charge. At station 3, the powder check die checks for the correct amount of powder in the case. Then on to seating and crimping. A total of 5 stations in all. It is a self indexing press.
