There are a few that are my go too cartridges like 45-70, 300win, 7mmSTW, 7mm-08, and 308. But 7 stations are not enough. I have a lee 1000. Horrible slop. I know its not a strong enough design to be a rifle turret press. Works "ok" for 9mm, but for precision FL sizing, no freakin way.
T7 looked to be strong enough, but even that I am sceptical.
A little wiggle is ok, as long as it wiggles the same everytime. I had the same with my dillon.
So using a Rockchucker or Lee classic, you pretty much load a "batch". Then the next "batch" you essentially are starting over, since you reset the dies for each stage of the process. OAL and powder charges are not a problem, but what about the crimp? A little change there and your looking at different pressure which = different velocity = re-sighting in and so on. Unless I'm missing something on rifle crimps...
