Great suggestions Dave. I have always de-primed, and sized in a separate operation, and cleaned afterwards. Once this is done my brass is stored for when I need it. I have tried a few of the lee presses, and have only kept the Loadmaster, and Classic turret press. I do my brass prep on the turret press, and use it as a single stage. The Classic has a nice primer disposal system, where the loadmaster needs to be taken apart to clean out the primers, and gunk. With the upgrades available for the loadmaster most if not all of the problems it had have been ironed out. Some things I do not use are the bullet feeder, or case feeders. I do it by hand and can do about 300 rounds an hour at a normal pace without issue. The more addons you use with the lee press the more problems it creates. Between those two presses there is no reason to go middle of the road with a Hornady press or RCBS, just use the Lee's until you can afford the Dillon.
