You may not need to swap presses if one press can serve both operating modes.
Progressive presses' native operating mode is continuous. Single stage presses' native (and, indeed, only practical) operating mode is batch.
Any turret press can operate as a single stage. Any turret press can also operate in continuous mode (put the empty case in the press and perform all steps until a finished cartridge comes out, then insert the next empty case). An auto-advancing turret is much better at continuous mode than a manually advancing, but either can do. Lee makes the only two auto-advancing/auto-indexing turrets on the market today, the Lee Deluxe Turret and the (superior in almost every way) Lee Classic Turret.

The advantage of a really strong single stage press (or the Forster Co-Ax) is in precision loading. Turret presses (and progressives) have some play (necessitated by design) which, some say, can introduce variances in the ammunition produced. Others say, not so much.
