I use a very-very old Lyman turret for my loading.
Ditto here.

I haven't used any Lyman products except for my Turbo Pro 1200 tumbler and their red media for same. Been going strong for about 15,000 cases of all sizes, etc.

RCBS is what I use now and no disappointments here.

Also, very true about not needing a progressive if you're making precision rifle loads. Progressive presses are going to be wonderful for making a ton of straightwall pistol ammo so grab one if you think you may do that eventually. But stick with a single stage and work 'em up carefully for the rifle rounds.
