The main reason I don't "upgrade" to a turret press is that I feel I would loose a certain measure of safety. With my single stage press, it is easier to inspect every phase of the reload process.

Yeah, I would love an automated powder measure, but even though weighing each charge is slower, I trust it more and I can inspect each case for a double charge, or no charge, before I seat the bullet.

The only "automated" part of my press is the priming system. I can resize and decap on the upstroke, load a primer from the feeder, and seat in on the downstroke.

I use carbide dies and even though I don't have to lube the cases, I do so because it gives me a chance to really inspect each case. Besides, they slide through the sizing die real nice when lubed.
