I also have three 650's and a 9000h. About the only thing with them is a dime or penny under the stand for repriming - gets the primer level with the bushing. For the 12ga I also use Mec's smooth starting crimp die. It's made for paper shells but works for 6 or 8 point crimps - this way I don't ever have to change the start crimp die. At one time I was loading 2" shells [ too much time on my hands ] and made a longer plunger for the final crimp station - still have it somewhere. Mecs are the only presses I've used for shotgun shells and I'm very happy with them. I have a PW for 20ga I bought used and never used - sell it cheap if someone wants it.
