How does the ballisti-cast equipment compare to Magma Engineering products?

I'm looking at the Ballisti-cast Mark VI Lube Sizer specifically.

what will you get for an answer to a question like that. The magma guys are going to say theres is best and the ballistic cast guys will say theres is. Its about like asking which is better a ford or a chev. Even though we all know the answer to that is a chev you are going to get stubborn ford guys that will argue. Bottom line is ive used both and they both make bullets.

both are a quality tool and built for a lifetime of use.

Can the plate rotate without you having to manually do it?

Last year someone added up the cost of both machines with all the attachments. Air cylinder, bullet feed, heater and so on. Said the BC was actually less expensive if you had both machines fully dressed. The BC machine looks to be more integrated with it's accessories. Not many BC machines out their compared to Star so it's hard to get much feedback. I've never heard a major complaint though.
Sizing dies are interchangeable between the two brands. Yes I believe you have to hand rotate the wheel but that hand is free.
