I have had a Lyman DPS for about 12 years. I love it though it has changed how I reload. I used to deprime, prime and turn cases upside down then charge and seat. I now use a turret press, deprime and prime, charge and seat. It takes a few seconds to get the charge settled in so using a turret gets the charge ready by the time the case is ready to be filled. Being an old reloader I check every tenth charge on a balance beam scale. I don't remember when I had one off as much as a tenth grain but I still check. Without going to a progressive it has been the one thing that has sped up my reloading while still feeling like I am controlling all aspects. my turret still sets next to a Rockchucker for when I just want some test loads with various powders and don't want to mess with clean up.
