[QUOTE="Aldon, post: 1582145, member: 20047"] Not necessarily. The fact of the matter is that for the moat part, it’s the design and machining quality and tolerances of threading etc that determines the potential of a press. Then everything that is added to the press adds a bit of potential stacking of negative tolerances. An educated guess would be that the iron Hornady will handle larger sizing or swaging with less flex. The classic Hornady, Redding Boss, RCBS chuckers, and Lyman O styled presses are all very similar. Hornady uses the LNL quick change and a couple others can do so using their own set up. Personally for routine plinking to slightly better than average accuracy all these brands and even Lee in many cases are more than adequate. When you finally get comfortable that you are close to mastering reloading, then you will have to become a bit of a gun crank in order to squeeze a bit more out of the process. At that point, higher end DIES and press start to earn their ROI. [/QUOTE]
