I know I can do this with my 550 if I choose to, so I assume you can do the same with a 450.

Bottom line is that you're not forced to operate it as a progressive, you can use it as a single stage turret press, which is precisely what I would suggest you do to get started in reloading. Once you get more comfortable with reloading, you have the option of taking it to the next level.

I was thinking about using it as a single stage, one round at a time. I assume the powder drop can removed from the machine as well? I have no intention on jumping into the progressive mode as a novice. I need to learn the correct and safe way the first time!
