[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 807631, member: 41442"] id recomend you look at a 550. Its a manual advance press so you can use it just like a single stage if you want. It also because of the manual advance has alot less that can go wrong with it. The 650 is a great press but was designed to be used with a case feeder and is kind of awkward without one. I have three lnls and there ok presses but do tend to go out of time an take a bit more fiddling to keep running smoothly. they are a bit better to use wihtout a case feeder then a 650 is though. Ive ran all the rcbs progressives and although im a big fan of rcbs there progressives can be frustrating to run. I wouldnt give you a plugged nickle for either of the lee progressves. Lee makes some inovative stuff and does it at a reasonable price but there progressives are junk! Bottom line is a 550 is never a mistake. I may not be the fastest press out there but its hands down the most reliable. Ive found that because I spend so much less time fooling with the press and more time actually loading the differnce in ammo output between the 550 and my lnls is about a toss up. [/QUOTE]
