1. Another reminder it's okay a few times a year to pay $420 for 1,000 rounds of factory American Eagle .38 Special and $260 for the same factory's output in 9mm.
2. Another reminder that these threads always ALWAYS eventually migrate to vociferously attacking the actions of the OP; and although no one posting but the OP was there, the OP's alleged error(s) will eventually and inevitably be stated as certain fact with numerous 'likes' adjoining. Does that just give some folks a sense of peace and order in the uncertainty?
3. The mother of all zombie threads indeed!

Jump up and down and tout the Dillion's design ( which is good I agree) but after forty plus years of reloading I can say every catastrophic failure I have seen including another shooters saa opening up about two feet from my head while I was running a timer at a cowboy match have one thing in common- they were loaded on a progressive press.
I am in the dark ages with a single stage press but it allows me to examine every case before putting a bullet in. Slow yes, but I manage to reload around 10-12k a year this way.

Same observation here, always a progressive involved.

Kabooms have been happening since long before Lee and Dillon and anyone else started selling progressive presses.
