I recently bought a Dillon 650, I already have a 550b. I somehow misplaced one of the 45acp locator pins on the shell plate of the 650. Since I will now be using the 650 for 45acp and not the 550 can I "borrow" one of the 45acp locator pins from the 550 until I can get Dillon to send me another one or is there a difference. I assume they are the same for both models. I will be using the 550 for 9mm et al.
 
If they are the same size, yes. I'm not sure if they all match up. They are the same number and size for 9mm. But the wrong pin might be better than no pin..
 
All Dillon presses use the same locator pins, for the SD, 550, 650 and 1050 if the station requires a locator pin, for 45 ACP, it will be a #1, for 9mm you need #3.
