Dillon being as good as they are at the design part of the operation would have provided the other style of handle as an option I would think if they thought it would benefit the end user to any great extent. Like anything else there is usually a lot of research into the design of a product by the time an end user gets his/her hands on something. Nobody likes being the experiment when it comes to convenience/production, especially with reloading it seems. That is why the Dillon press that works so well out of the box is so popular IMHO. No I do not own a Dillon press or work for them in any way. Personal experience with friends that own them and the many stellar reports on the net are all good indicators however. I almost think that they employ an army of reloading ninjas that sneak into random customers houses at night and adjust their Dillon presses as needed to keep them humming along trouble free. Personally I own a couple turret presses and 3 single stage ones as well. I am not in a hurry to make ammo anyway. It is the process and control of the end product that is the relaxing part to me. Also I tend to shoot up less when I realize what it takes time wise on a SS press to make 300-400 rounds of handgun ammo. YMMV
