I have a dillon 650 press and I have .223 and 22-250 dies and all the other stuff that is needed to load the small and large rifle primers. If I want to load .243 will all I need is the dies. Can I use the base plate for the 22-250 or do I need to order a .243 base plate also? I am not finding out much on Dillon web site. Please fill me in on what is needed.
 
Yep, you should be good on the base plate. I haven't loaded rifle on my 650 yet although I did on the 550. The secret to success is picking the correct powder.

The shell plate is the same as the 22-250, but you will need a 6mm powder funnel tube thingie for the powder measure.
