With an old 550, that I've had for 20 years, I can load roughly 300 rounds per hour. Some claim more, maybe I'm just slow. Refilling primer magazine is something of a pain, but I can live with that, and the "lack" of automatic advance isn't fatal. None of the above is meant to knock this new RCBS press, which I have not seen.
As to RCBS's powder measure being "better" than Dillons, I wore one of Dillons out, and they replaced it at no charge, and quickly. I recalibrate, using a good scale, every time I reload, perhaps a waste of time, but it makes me feel better.
RCBS has always made a good product, except perhaps for their long gone Green Machine, I still have one of their Junior presses, that I use now and then. I imagine that their new press will turn out to be a good machine too.
