I load .45 Colt, .45 ACP and .44 mag. on a Lee 3 hole turret. I have the auto disc, safety prime and auto-indexing on it. it is no problem loading 200 rds. an hour with this set up. I check the power on the 1st, 5th 10th, 20th and every 20th rd. after. Charge weight has never varied more than 0.10 gr. with 110, 296, Unique, HS 6 or W231 which are the powders I've used to date.
With my Ponsness Warren turret press, it is more efficient to size and prime separately and then flare, charge seat and crimp on the Ponsness Warren. I can run 200 rds an hour through this press no problem but when I consider the time spent sizing and priming my output is considerably less and not much more than if I just used my single stage in batches.
Cabella's has about the best deal going on the classic turret press. akit consisting of the press, safety prime, auto disc pro, small rifle charging die an extended powder tube for use with dies other than Lee's and a scale, $149.99
