Is that guy a professional hunter/guide/gunsmith/somethingorother?

You gotta figure that he's got maybe $10k in presses alone, not to mention dies and other equipment (like a dedicated 4WD vehicle..).

And then there's the firearms.

I've seen the forum thread pictures but never read the forum to figure out what the guy does for a living, since making regular use of half of that stuff would be a full time job.

He's a mathematician, and it's just a hobby.

Really. A s-e-r-i-o-u-s hobby, but just a hobby.

Now he just needs a few dozen oompa-loompas to run everything.

And sing those nice, forboding jingles.

Hey not everyone can have a big cat.... Those are a lot harder to come by than dillon stuff - and a lot more fun sometimes too.

I think that it is astounding that this person has all of those 550's and 650's

Why? But I suppose that I have learned not to ask why....

I would guess s/he reloads a lot and a lot of different calibers. If you have lots of money, why change over a machine when you can just buy another?

Yeah - I suppose - but a toolhead hcange for a 650 is a matter of just a couple of minutes.

Not a biggie.

Maybe it would be a biggie if you had bill gates's cash?
