My turn? I would humbly suggest the path that I have chosen. I started on a RCBS Rock Chucker KIT.... bought it as a "return" from RCBS direct. Got a good deal. Loaded on it for a couple years. (45ACP and .38/357)
About 2 years ago, I got the itch to go progressive. But I didn't. I actually like the "batch process" that is required in Single Stage reloading, but I didn't like having to reset my dies for each process. Soooo I went with a Lee Classic Turrret 4 hole press. I have four turrets, one for each: 38, 357,45 and .40 cal. Once set and locked into position, I very seldom have to make an adjustment. To change calibers, I just replace the turret and move on. I turned off the auto advance option, so I now will deprime 100 (or 500)... the bell the same 500, then charge/seat them. For me, this set up provides the optimum combination between progressive and single stage. I can QC the rounds much better this way. I'm guessing if your shooting 1000 or more rounds per month, progressive is the way to go. But I DO shoot 150 or so rounds every week, so thats in the 600 per month range and I never seem to run out of boolits! "Just sayin" Da
