Not bad if it actually works. I'd like to see the reviews before plunking down some money for this press.

The market will be flooded with used dillon presses

Why would people ditch their Dillon for the Lee, or was that a joke?

...
In the world of competitive shooting, Dillon is the defacto standard.
Lee presses, being constructed of lesser grade material and looser tolerances are contraindicated.

Why would people move POA when in the midst of shooting for groups?
I don't care. Neither should you as it is my decision to get a new Lee and sell my Dillon.

I ask that you review it once you get it set up and working properly. Is there an auto feed for bullets, primers and cases for the Lee?

I don't have a progressive press myself. I hear they take a bit to get set up properly, but once they are set up they are pretty slick.

In actuality, I have both Lee and Dillon presses. I ran out of bench space though so the Lee is sitting aside for now.
I am actually ready to pull off the single stage press to make room for the Lee.
As a matter of fact, I have a Dillon sitting on a shelf too because I don't have bench space for that either.
My daughter calls me a hoarder. :rofl:

From the few videos that I have seen, there is an auto feed system for the cases but nothing for the primers and bullets.

Let's hope they will be coming soon! That's a great price for a real progressive press.

Looks like there is an auto feed system for the bullets. Primers are still loaded using the old system. I hope they change it. Mine drops primers every so often.
