The advantage of it is the easy change over of calibers. Just buy inexpensive turrets and set your dies up. Change over is less than a few minutes.
The main advantage over a single stage is not handling the same piece of brass 4 or 5 times.
It will never match a progressive, but it depends on what your needs are. |
This matches up with my experience. The inline case ejector is a helpful add on and so is the Auto-drum measure. I also load .223 rem on mine using the auto-index and the lube process slows the production down a bit. The quick caliber change is nice, and you don't need load blocks so there's less clutter. They make an ergo lever that might help but it's still the same # of handle pulls as a single stage.
