    I also have interest in a star. But I have at least a dozen different calibers/sizes. Am I just as well to keep using the three Lyman's I have been using?
    I may only size 25-50 of a small batch to test with. Then switch to another caliber to do the same. How much time is involved switching from on to another caliber? And what kind of cost would I be looking at to do it in a timely manner?
    thanks

    W/ the small quantities you're doing a Star doesn't make much sense. It's less than five minutes to switch a Lyman over. If you do have one or two particular bullets you shoot a lot of then the Star is worth it IMO.
