[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2844468, member: 95344"] I haven't tried any of the newer progressives but imo Dillon had the best primer seater and powder drop system back almost twenty years ago. The 1050's I ran were very smooth and rebuilding them wasn't a problem for me. 650's aren't as smooth but work well and offer a lot of flexibility. I've had a Hornady progressive since the 1980's and use it mostly for case prep work now. Single stage press to finish loads off the progressive, or to do all the reloading. I prefer using either a hand held or desk mounted primer seater and single stage press to seat bullets. That way I can visually/ physically inspect primer depth and powder charge. [/QUOTE]
