I tried a Hornady press of one of my buddies, it just didn't feel right to me. I guess every press has a character all its own.
Favorite Press?

Forster CoAx all the way for rifle and max load revolver rounds. Not much into progressives.
I've been using the same Lee single stage press for about 35 years, I now onlky use it for rifle caliber loading and a couple pistol calibers. I bought a Dillon RL550B a couple of years ago that I use for most of my pistol stuff. I wish I had bought a Dillon years ago.
I use an Lyman orange crush and have been very pleased

RCBS RC for rifle and Lee Classic Cast for pistol. I like single stage. I'm not trying to win a race.
Another fan of hornadys lock n load progressive press...can't beat hornadys free bullet offer...makes the cost of their equipment almost half if you factor in the bullets cost. I have a rcbs single stage for my bullet puller and if I decide to start loading 5.7 ammo. I really don't care much for single stage it is too teadous for me. I honestly haven't tried many other progressives I would like to check out a dillon because I hear a lot of people using them.
I have used just about everything and Reloaded for 40 years. Lock n Load, RCBS, Lee, both Single Stage and Progressive. I now use two Dillon 650s. One for Small and One for Large Primers. There are a lot of good Presses but for me The Dillon 650 is my Favorite. For service RCBS is the #1 Company at Present. Used to be Dillon but they have Changed a little over time. Dillon holds value better than anything and works as good as anything out there.
