Just for balance, I'll talk green....yes....there still is green! When I started down the progressive path, I chose between Dillon and RCBS. Hornady? I had no negatives really, I just liked the idea of setting up die plates once....populated with the dies I want to load with....including powder measure low ends, and even powder cops. Purely personal taste....and simpler for me at least.
So why did I choose the Pro 2000 RCBS over the vaunted Dillon 650? Simplicity (Pro 2000's don't go out of time), price, and the super safe strip primer system. Was I later sorry? No, I've been pleased with it's performance for what I do. I used a bullet feeder with it and never felt slighted.....I went as fast as I wanted.....faster than that, as in D. 1050's with motor drives, are too fast for me to feel safe. That's not to say that 1050's are not worth their weight in gold for those who compete in pistol shooting every week.....
For some of us, bullet feeders are more important than case feeders if you gotta choose .... simply because placing bullets is harder and slower than placing cases.......you don't tend to mash your fingers placing cases when you are stoking at a fast pace....as I'm capable of doing, placing bullets and holding them upright while they feed straight into the bottom of a seater! Hurts like hell, if you get caught!
I bought another green progressive last May. The Pro Chucker 7. I know it had teething pains, ALL new presses do. Early adapters were not easy on the company, or on the press. I waited for the smoke to clear.
No it isn't perfect (show me one press, new or old, that is perfect)....the optional case feeder was not as "bullet proof" (ha,ha) as I wanted.....but I fixed that in short order. The seven stations and the glass smooth rotation of them is awesome. And no, I have not broken even one primer sled....in 10 months.
I use the Pro 2000 as my pistol loader and the Pro Chucker 7 to load rifle.....and yes I use every station. 1-Case feed/size/prime, 2-M-die expand, 3-powder-drop, 4-video powder cop, 5-bullet feed, 6-seat, 7-crimp.......what's not to like? Could I like a blue or red press? Sure! It's not so much the press as the hobby.....and for me tinkering is part of the fun.
One piece of advice to the O.P. Learn Patience. No matter what press you buy, if something doesn't feel right....stop. Bulling through a stroke anyway, is ALWAYS bad, I don't care what color your press turns out to be........
And fully automatic? That means that by the time you get it stopped, you've ruined, primers, brass, bullets, and probably press parts..........that's why factories have guys stationed all along an assembly line....to push the damned stop switch as soon as they can when something goes wrong to "minimize" the damage to products and machines.
