[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4301229, member: 15054"] He has ran thousands of rounds through it and loves it. Another buddy used it and he wanted to buy one for himself. Pretty good pace can be had when doing pistol ammo and a lee disc or other type of powder measure that is actuated by the press and lee die. For .223 rifle cases or other rifle cases we have too many steps in the reloading process to benefit from a full progressive. You must lube then size. Then remove from press and remove lube trim and chamfer the case and I brush necks. Then I measure all ID and OD of case necks. Then into the press to prime and I suppose you could have a press mounted powder drop but I like to see in my cases and make sure the right volume of powder is in there. Then seat a bullet and done. For rifle if I have a small grain powder that drops consistent charges from a powder measure I will stick all my cases in a loading block and fill them with powder. Then inspect powder level and back in the press and seat bullet. Progressive will NEVER work for me with rifle cases. [/QUOTE]
