Well, accuracy takes time...

I don't see any progressive presses at benchrest matches.

I do, however, see people loading anywhere from five to 25 rounds, and giving their rifle a serious cleaning, in the space of a 20-25 minute frame. This is MATCH ammo, folks... Single stage accuracy doesn't have to be slow... I can load a few hundred an hours, should I choose... Wipe the case necks, lube, size, wipe off the lube, clean/ream the primer pockets, prime, charge, seat, and you're done...
