For loading load pistol caliber. I know it's not the coolest press but will it do the job for 10-20 years?
Is the square deal b worth twice as much?
is the rl550 worth 3 times as much?
My monthly round count will be around 1000 rounds

If I were going to buy a Lee Progressive, I would buy a loadmaster.
(and I did).
It works wonderfully for handgun rounds. Rifle rounds are a little harder because the case feeder just doesn't do a good job without some mods.
Lee is a budget model, and you will tinker with it a bit more than a higher end. However, now that I've got it properly setup, cranking 1000 rounds of 9mm isn't any different with it than any other machine.
When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
What's the difference between 1000 and the loadmasters?
I would always go Dillon with reloading equipment. The quality can't be beaten and their customer service is off the chart.

I had a lee loadmaster and it worked well but needed constant attention, something would jam, a screw would come loose, etc.
With the Dillion, I could load 1000's of rounds without an issue.
5 stations vs 3. The load master is a much stronger platform.

I have a Dillon 650XL I've been using for about 14 years now. Running strong and it has more rounds made on it than I can easily think of! I've worn out two guns with that press, if that's any indication. Solid as rocks.
You get what you pay for. This is especially true when you are talking about reloading presses.
Luck is the phenomena created when Preparation meets Opportunity .
^^^ THAT !! ^^^
I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.
