[QUOTE="okietom, post: 2281357, member: 18710"] Even if you have a progressive press you will find uses for a single stage. Start with a progressive and upgrade to a progressive and a single stage. I have had my rockchucker since 81 and my Dillon since 86 and just recently upgraded to a progressive, a rockchucker and a lee hand press. It would be nice to have a Dillon 650 for every cartridge you load but it is nice to do some things on a simpler press. If I get once fired brass I will use a depapping die in my hand press while watching TV. I have used my Dillon rapid trim on my rockchucker. I still have a couple cartridges that I load seldom that I don't have a conversion for the Dillon so I need the RCBS. It would not be a bad thing to start progressive and get the single stage later. You can get by with doing it all on a progressive. There are several on this forum that feel more comfortable doing load development on a single stage then doing the progressive thing when they have settled on a load or two. I have done load development both ways, it will work. Get the one YOU want to get. [/QUOTE]
