The Lee "Classic Cast Turret" is what I call a semi-progressive. You gain a serious time advantage on straight-wall pistol cartridges because you aren't handling each cartridge but once. BUT, unlike a true progressive, you are working on only 1 cartridge at a time. So there 3 or 4 op lever pulls to complete a single cartridge (depending on how many dies are in your die set).
The draw backs then are then that to complete 1000 rounds on a Lee CC Turret there will be 3000-4000 lever pulls. Whereas with a true progressive press, multiple cartridges are being worked on, so 1000 op lever pulls = 1000 finished rounds.
So (Yes) while you won't be handling as much brass, you will be be getting those those cortisone shots in your shoulder and gobbling ibuprofen like candy. And you'll also be wanting to buy the "ergo op lever" from In-Line Fabrication in your first week.

Brother, there's simply no easy or cheap way to do what you want.
Hope this helps!
