OK, time is closing in and I am going nuts trying to filter out all the great threads and post I find on this forum.
I want to try a different approach this time. Maybe this will allow me to understand some of the basics that I am not used to.
I am looking for loader sugestions from this forum, but the usual problem is that most everyone will claim their current loader as the "Best" in the world no matter what. I don't see where this will ever change so I will ask my questions a little different. Please suport the machine you are using if it fits into my requirements and if it will do what I need. However, If you know and understand a better machine to do the job I need, please tell me about it.
Here is what I want to do:
I am looking for a new Progressive press that will give me the best performance for my buck. I don't need a factory, but I want very good quality. I want to limit my bench time for loading and the frustrations involved like spil cleanups, component restocking and re-tooling. Hopefully, I can pump out 300 or more Good (Perfect) rounds within an hour. I would like to do it without constant troubles of cleaning spills or shutting down the line to readjust every few minutes or to add components.
I want to load .380, 9mm, .40 and .223 in progressive style with consistantcy
I will keep my older turret around to supply my hunting and less used ammo.
My research has given me 4 good choices in brands. Then I need to chose the model and the needed options to go along with my brand choice.
If I can get the answer to these few questions, I will be greatful.
Here are my questions......
What Brand ?
What model ?
What exactly do I need in options to do what I have mentioned above?
What is the ball park price to do the above ?
Where is the best place to purchase this equipment ?
Please select from within the 4 brands found below.

If you are able to help me decide on one of thse listed brands, please give me your reasons and the details of your selection.
I know this is like a homework assingment, or maybe a term project, but I want to try it this way and see if I can get enough good solid info to make my selection.
Thank you very very much for any help or suggestions.
