Upgrading from single stage press
Have recently started reloading after a few years off. Picked up a AR-15 pistol in 300AC Blackout and screwed a nfa item to the end, and it has become my favorite thing to shoot. I am gathering equipment to start casting 200-220 grain bullets to load subsonic rounds for it. I have a couple of single stage presses, and an old Lee progressive, 3 stage, setup for 9mm. Have a bit of a space issue in my gun room and trying to decide if going full progressive or 4/5 stage turret is better for an upgrade.
I think I need at least 4 stages, 1 extra to expand for cast, but wondering if a turret press will be too labor intensive in the end. I expect to shoot 10,000-12,000 rounds a year.
I used to do a lot of 9mm, but I can find them reman’d today for not much more than I can reload myself. I cannot seem to find anyone doing Blackout reman’s.
I load for my hunting calibers, but don’t shoot so many that I feel I need anything besides single stage for them.
Anyone start with a turret and decide they should have gone progressive, or vice versa?
Thanks,
Rod
