I have a lot of nerve damage and reloading for any length of time on my single stage was getting to be very problematic. At least 4 handle pulls to load one round had goten me to where I was not loading much at all.

I switched to a progressive and now I can load for about 20 minutes and get loaded what used to take me 3-4 hours. The force required seems to be about the same but going from 400 handle strokes per 100 rounds to 105 made a heck of a difference for me.

I can actually load more ammo at one sitting now than I usually shoot for one range trip.
