If you get set up with a heavy duty press for resizing and 2-3 cheaper presses for bullet seating, crimping etc. you can load a lot of rounds in an hour. Not as fast as a progressive, but pretty fast. And in my case better quality control.

I have two turret presses, one a lyman t-mag 2 and the other a Lee. I started loading everything with the Lee now I only load pistol with the Lee on autoindex and all my rifle on the lyman. I agree if just starting out learn on a single stage then upgrade to the progressive, big learning curve.

Like I said, I don't mean to sound rude. Its usally theDCM or AR-15 guys who progressive load. All the Bench shooters usually single stage. Two different types I guess.DCM seem to be much higher volumn.

No offence taken
and you are correct, I do not know a wealth of comp shooters it is just the ones I do know are so exact in every aspect of their reloading you will never catch them progressive reloading. They weigh and measure every bullet and case, they hand weigh every powder load and hand primer every case, I just don't know any comp shooters that load comp bullets progressively.

I mean no offense, but you obviously do not know too many comp shooters. All of em I know has both a single stage and a dillion.

I agree, precision rounds and a progressive reloader is an oxymoron. I have never heard of anyone trying to develope precision loads in a progressive reloader.
