OK POO POO me if you want but I am completely happy with my Lee Classic 4 hole Turret press. It seems to reload rifle rounds very well, and it is an inexpensive machine.

I'm not sure a progressive is the best press, but, of all the progressives out there, the best one and the one that is the most useful for military calibers is the Dillon Super 1050. After that, they are all sort of the same, with the 3-station Lee Pro 1000 still being more press than needed for loading those cartridges.
. But I have to say with the amount of used red stuff I see out there and the fact I havent seen one used blue press anywhere I can only make one assumption...

I have a Hornady LNL progressive press and while it works well now, it seems to me it was a lot of trouble to setup. On the very first case, I broke a hub and I still don't think the timing is a good as it should be. Once I got everything adjusted and was used to it, reloading was fairly smooth. It's probably a good idea to try both of them before buying.
So was saving the $150 worth the extra 'futzing around" and waiting for broken part replacement as well as questioning the timing?
