I'm glad you had no problems - but I still couldn't recommend a progressive loader for a beginner. Too much can go wrong and the consequences of a moment's inattention (empty powder measure, skipped primer) are profound (and can cost you a stage when you have a misfire in a Combat or Cowboy match).

Single stage IS slow, but it allows you to cast your eye over the loading block to confirm that all primers are seated, powder is the same level in every case, etc. With practice, you can get more efficient too.

CAluvdubya: DH even heard one of the salesmen at his favorite gun shop tell a customer that Dillon Press is waay behind on orders. Anyone just now planning to learn to reload isn't going to get their equipment from Dillon any time soon.

Don't recall recommending anything just passing along information but, okay.
