My 2 cents on progressives...I am not a big fan of them, especially for rifle cartridges. That being said, I have a Dillon 550, but I use it exclusively for handgun loading. I'm still old school and use a single stage CH Magnum H press for all my rifle loading. My brother uses a Hornady Lock n Load progressive and loves it and he's relatively new to reloading. I will say this, from experiences from friends and myself...buy the best press you can possibly afford if you are going to buy a progressive...I love my Dillon and their no BS warranty is hands down unbeatable...buy once, cry once.
