Kind of missing the point if you are hand priming on a progressive press.
Thanks real helpful. What would be a good single stage to start with?
Other than the powder check die I think the 550 can do whatever the 650 can do.
+1 on the RockChucker as a great single stage press.
Even if and when you graduate to a progressive press, you'll want to keep the single stage press around for small jobs and precision loading.
Got your reloading area figured out yet?
Some folks actually enjoy the process of single stage reloading, so that option is kind of just a depends on you thing. Again, it is nice to be able to visually inspect the level in each round, sometimes you might catch a powder fill error and other times you might catch a bit of cleaning material or wedged range trash partially filling the case, does not happen often but things happen.
