I’ve been reloading since 2014 so not super new to the game, recreantly started dipping my toe into the progressive loaders. Picked up a Lee 1000 at a gun show (old style with square base) set up to load 45acp. I’ve loaded a couple hundred rounds with it and think I like it, but it takes some tinkering to run smoothly. Have used different single stage, a couple of turret presses, one auto indexing in the past and they are ok, but the progressive is so much faster, even in new guy overthinking mode for pistol loads.
Looking for guidance on the next phase. Don’t mind the tinkering to a point, don’t want the frustration if not necessary. Are the newer presses easier or better? Are the other brands more fool proof in mechanical design? Not looking to fully automate my loading session, just faster and smother.
