I began loading on a Lyman Spartan "C" press. Moved on to a Lyman Spar-T turret press. Then got am RCBS JR, Rockchucker, and then Dillon RL 450B (and yes, that was a long time ago).

I got away from the Dillon, and actually traded it off about a year ago, and now do all my loading on a single stage press. And I do all my priming with a hand tool these days, too. I just like the feel better. The time rnds/hr doesn't matter to me.

Progressives, when they work right, are great for making large batches of a single load. Setting them up for less became tedious for me, and I like reloading!
