Lee offers 2 versions of Classic Cast, Breech Lock or no Breech Lock at the same price. Which version do you prefer? Is Breech Lock less precise? It is definitely an attractive feature, but not sure how much time it actually save in real world. The quick unlock will mean less thread engagement and less load bearing, does it affect life? Lee only has 2 year warranty, don't want the press break shortly after 2 yrs!
New to reloading and consider Single Stage O-frame such as RCBS Partner, Lee Challenger or Lee Classic Cast as my first press. Would really like to start from a used one, but don't see any listed in For Sale! Mostly for reloading necked rifle rounds such as 308, may do pistol rounds such as 9mm Luger and .45 ACP later.
