I use a Lee Loadmaster progressive press. It's a cheaper progressive loader, but being new to reloading, didn't want to to go with some of the higher end unit's and Midway was blowing these out last year for $119 bucks with a set of 223 dies. Haven't reloaded yet since I couldn't find any powder until recently.
The Loadmaster is well built for the price but when setting it up and calibrating the rig, the casing loader (the part that pushes in the casing into the turret) is poorly designed. It's way to short in height and would not consistently feed the brass. Really annoying!
Ending up redesigning the part in CAD and 3d printing the part which resolved the issue.
Looking forward to doing my first load shortly.
