Dale,
I'll take a look at that site, thanks.

YOu know I thought about hand priming but here is the deal. Stage 1 is depriming and sizing, stage 2 is prime and powder, stage 3 is projectile seating, cripm etc..
To hand prime I would basically be depriming all my brass, taking it off the press, hand priming then when ready to reload I would have effectively turned my progressive into a single stage.

I'll keep working on it thouhg, thanks for the suggestions.
