Sure, it'd be a pain to size one case, then change a die, prime and bell the case and change the die, seat one bullet and then start all over again but that's just not the way single stage press reloaders with half a brain do things.
Amen to that - went back to using my RCBS Jr after getting rid of a Dillon 550 - too many issues with primer feeding and the powder measure for 223 rifle - sold it for what I paid for it.
Like you said, I reload pistol in two sessions - size/deprime/reprime and bell the mouth in one. Later, I'll fill and add the bullet - can load all I need, with no major issues. Of course, I also don't go to a range and try to spray and pray 200 rounds in 30 minutes either.
It would be interesting to see how many progressive folks only shoot autos.....IMO, there seems to be a connection......
