You make a lot of assumptions for a guy that doesn't/hasn't reloaded on a progressive?? This is the 21st century, there is no need to use old tools & old methods unless one just wants to be nostalgic. Most of us older guys started on a ss press, what was available then, like 40yr ago. Today, no real reason to stick with that unless you just like to go slow & spend a lot of time reloading.
For anyone shooting more than 100rds a week handgun, just pulling the handle 400x is pretty ridiculous when you can get the same amount of ammo with 103 pulls. So go fast or slow, makes no diff, but you will do less work on any good progressive.
