So today I had a better result. I loaded 1,000 match loads (.38 Special) and only crunched one case and had one over-flared .357 Mag case that somehow snuck in.
I did manage to miss the primer on one round! There is a lot to pay attention to with a progressive!

Oh, and I figured out why I could only post one picture per posting!
I have .45 ACP and 5.56 to do next.
I've reloaded for many years on a single stage. From plinking ammo to high-grade match fare. I'm happy for the prior knowledge, it allowed me to "miss" many errors I'm sure. It also allowed me to get up and running is a pretty short order.Running a progressive for the first time is a learning curve for sure. I thank god for good members here that helped walk me through it. Poor @v0lcom13sn0w spent a couple hours on the phone with me the first day.

The amount of new "knowledge" is pretty steep. I can't imagine starting out on a progressive. I'm sure it's done, but the "pain of learning curve" must be pretty high! Not to mention that there will always be uses for a single stage press and since I started that way I have it and know how to really use it.
This place does rock, there are a ton of knowledgeble and helpful folks here!
I've always wanted a Hornet … low cost, noise, recoil but high levels of fun I'm sure!
