[QUOTE="Surveyor1653, post: 1161528, member: 5197"] This right here. I started on a Lee 4-hole and am very happy with it. I've loaded 600 rounds so far and I'm pretty happy with mine. Even though you're reloading three calibers you can't go wrong: pay $12 twice and get two extra turrets. Set up each caliber on its own turret and when you want to switch you just pull the turret, drop on the new turret, swap the powder hopper over(you'll have to buy the powder measure adapter for a whole $6) and you're off and loading again. You're loading a new caliber in less than 5 minutes with a brass, bullet, and (maybe) primer & powder switch. Not bad for my money. A caveat: it is still possible to double-charge a round since you must complete the up-stroke of the handle to engage the auto-indexing feature. It's possible to charge the case, bring the ram down to just above the spiral turn in the indexing rod and go right back up into the powder-through die getting a double dose of the sparky stuff. Reloading time is quiet time: No radio, no TV, no going over the grocery list with the wife IMHO. Reloading is almost therapeutic for me so I look forward to my 'me' time at the bench. [/QUOTE]
