It's not like I ever want to make more than a couple boxes of a particular load anyway. Who knows, I might want to adjust it a little for some crazy reason in a couple months.

There's no "best", Fred. There's simply "picking the press that matches your needs, and the time you have to devote to reloading".
Agree, just pointing out the salient points. Cost of tools shouldn't really be in the equation when approaching a job. What the tools allow you to do is far more important.
I still use my ss press, but a turret just doesn't have a place on my bench between the ss, 550 & 650. The 550 can be used as an inverted turret should i feel the need to go pull the handle 3000 times + for 1000rds.
