I use a Lee 4 Hole Turret press for 9mm. Station 1 is M Die, Station 2 is powder,Station 3 is bullet seat / powder check, Station 4 is crimp.

In order to do this, I have a Rock Chucker with a case kicker installed and I can rip through 500 each 9mm case sizing and depriming them in a hour. I then prime them and my rate is 700 per hour priming with the automatic RCBS priming tool.

I then feed sized / primed brass into that Lee Turret and results are just fine. I do batches of brass prepared this way so when I need to load ammo, its really convenient using the Lee Turret.

I don't much like priming brass on a press and I don't like crimping and bullet seating at one station. :violin:

I do pretty much the same thing, only with a manual turret press. I take the sized & primed brass, into the M die, then over to the Harrells powder measure for a charge, then we seat a boolit, then we crimp. EASY. And every case even gets a powder charge. Just funnin, just funnin fellas..... enjoy Mike
